Finally, Software sales in the U.S still see Nintendo duking it out with Grand Theft Auto IV. 

NPD May Software Sales Figures

Grand Theft Auto IV (Xbox 360) - 871.3K
Mario Kart (Wii) - 787.4K
Wii Fit w/balance board (Wii) - 687.7K
Grand Theft Auto IV (PS3) - 442.9K

Significantly the sales of GTA IV on Xbox 360 far exceeds the PS3.  On the surface it seems many folks are getting into the PS3 experience for more than games.

We will see if Metal Gear Solid 4 on PS3 changes the landscape.
