  Sony isn’t happy about Microsoft’s claims that   the Xbox 360 outsold Sony’s PS3 two to one during the last week’s Thanksgiving   and Black Friday sales   rush. On Thursday November 29, 2007, Microsoft Corp reported that it had sold   some 310,000 units during the Thanksgiving weekend. Nintendo’s Wii sold some 350,000 units, plus another 653,000 Nintendo DS handhelds, and came in as the clear winner. Sony, which normally doesn’t disclose their sales figures until the end of the month, argued that Microsoft’s claims were false. Microsoft, on the other hand, has stood by their claims, adding to the fire of the bitter console wars.

Regardless of either side’s claims,   the combined figures from the three console giants have only strengthened   the game industries dominance around the world. To date, Nintendo has reported   that since the launch of the Wii, some 13.2 million consoles have been sold,   with Xbox 360’s own numbers at 13.4 million and Sony’s PS3 considerably lower with 5.6 million units sold since its release November of 2006.
