Ouch! PS2 beats PS3 in sales in April
According to the latest NPD Numbers, the Playstation 2 has beaten the Playstation 3 in number of console sales. That is not good news for Sony as the 9 year old console is kicking its less then 3 year old siblings butt.
The biggest reason for this is most likely the price drop that occurred last month to the Playstation 2 system, and also it does not help that it's older brother is the most expensive console in town. As E3 approaches, the pressure is only building for Sony to do something about the price of the Playstation 3 console.
But in terms of all the other consoles, nothing has really changed. Nintendo is still dominating and Microsoft continues to put up respectable numbers. Here are the NPD numbers for the month
