Everything looks about right from what I saw sold this holiday season.  I will say this about Sony as a manufacturer - although they were the only console manufacturer with any product left in my backroom after Christmas (both the PS2 and PS3 did not sellout), they've been better than Microsoft or Nintendo in replenishing PSP stock.  And the PSP has sold gangbusters.

In regards to poor DS software sales, it's pretty simple when you look at the demographic at who is buying it.  The answer is on the NPD chart - Brain Age 2.  The vast majority of folks are going to buy Brain Age and another non-gamer title a year.  Maybe less.  The hardcore gamer demographic that buys a DS is relatively small in comparison.  Nintendo has really tapped into a new market with both the DS and Wii, but the problem for third-parties is that they're not regular gamers.  Piracy really hurts the PSP software sales; I'd say that more than half the folks that buy one freely admit that they're going to hack it.  People love the system, though.  I'm willing to bet it has a worse tie ratio than the PS3.

You meant Uncharted?  Has there ever been a more aptly named title than Uncharted?  

Seriously though, 300000 is not bad for a PS3 game.  Uncharted should hit at least 1/2 a million eventually.  

After beating both games, I've to say that most PS3 gamers pick the right choice with COD4.  It's just a better shooter than Uncharted.  Uncharted would have been a better game if they had just kept the shooting at a minimum.

360 sales were the most disappointing.  From what I saw and what others reported, Premiums were not as readily available as a system in its third Christmas season should be.  All I saw during the holidays were plenty of Halo and Tard Plus (Arcade) packs.  That probably cost Microsoft a couple hundred thousand units.  360 software beat the shit out of the competition but that is standard fare.

PS3 didn't do all that bad on the hardware side.  Of course Sony PR lies, its what they've been doing since the mid 90s.  Only people that believe what they say are naive, shiny eyed Sony fanboy idealists with a short term memory.
