As with 2008, the biggest winner on Black Friday was Nintendo. According to our preliminary data, Nintendo sold nearly 800,000 Wii units and 850,000 DS units in the Americas during the week ending 28th November - pretty much exactly the same as last year. The biggest-selling software for the week was New Super Mario Bros Wii, which we estimate sold well over half a million units in the second week of release. Wii Sports Resort, Wii Fit Plus, Mario Kart Wii and most of the other big Nintendo and big casual third party titles on Wii and DS saw huge boosts.Sony had mixed fortunes this year. PS3 sold nearly 400,000 units during the week - around twice as many as last year and significantly ahead of Xbox 360. On the other hand, PSP sales were down over 35% year on year and PS2 was down over 25%. All holiday bundles were sold out countrywide, and while PS3 software sales in general were lower than Wii and Xbox360, top performers included all bundled titles (inFamous, Batman: Arkham Asylum, LittleBigPlanet, God of War Collection and Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time) along with Modern Warfare 2 and Assassin\'s Creed II.And lastly Microsoft had a solid week but down on last year. Around 325,000 Xbox 360s were sold, down over 35% on last year\'s record-breaking Black Friday for Microsoft. Most retailer-specific bundles sold well and the big software for the week was predictably Modern Warfare 2, Assassin\'s Creed II and Left 4 Dead 2.
