Wow, GBA outsold the PS3 last month!! Looks like price is the biggest factor for hardware sales so far.

Wow so PS3 sales are down about 66% since Jan. I think price has a lot to do with it but also the complete lack of games also is a problem. I'm also surprised the Wii is still selling so well. I haven't touched mine for about a month and there doesn't seem to be anything good coming out till august.
