News from the future: DS outsells Wii this holiday (in Japan)

Enterbrain, publishers of leading Japanese game magazine Famitsu, surveyed Japanese retailers for some surprising results.

Question 1: which new console will sell better this holiday season?

  • 88% Wii
  • 11% PS3

Question 2: including all hardware, which system will generate the most sales?

  • 60.7% Nintendo DS
  • 32.8% Nintendo Wii
  • 3.3% PS2
  • 1.6% PS3
  • 1.6% Xbox 360

If retailers are right, it'll be a Nintendo holiday this December (in Japan). Oh, hey: PSP, WRU?
