For the handheld market, the Nintendo DS continued to dominate, selling 537,000 units compared to 238,000 for the Sony PSP.
"Compared to August, nearly all hardware systems realised an increase in unit sales in September," commented Anita Frazier of NPD.
"The price reduction on the Xbox 360 helped deliver a month-over-month unit sales increase for that platform of 78 per cent."
