No big suprise here, the Wii kicked the competitions butt in recent sales figures. I love my new Wii (just picked it up a few weeks ago) and so far no problems. I am on my 3rd XBox360 thanks to the Ring of Death and the fact that they send you refurbished garbage to honour their warrenty.

Nintendo sold 721,000 Wii consoles in March, according to NPD. Microsoft sold 262,000 Xbox 360 units while Sony sold 257,000 PlayStation 3 systems.

Nintendo Wii sales were sparked by the recent launch of the hit game Super Smash Bros. Brawl — a Wii exclusive. NPD said the game sold 2.7 million copies in March, making it the month's top selling title by far.
