August 2009 NPD Results

The middle of the month is here, so let's take a look at the NPD results from August.

PlayStation 2 105.9K
PlayStation 3 210.0K
PSP 140.3K
Xbox 360 215.4K
Wii 277.4K
Nintendo DS 552.9K


MADDEN NFL 10 (360; Aug-09) 928,000
WII SPORTS RESORT W/ WII MOTION PLUS (WII; Jul-09) 754,000
MADDEN NFL 10 (PS3; Aug-09) 665,000
BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM* (360; Aug-09) 303,000
BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM* PS3; Aug-09) 290,000
MADDEN NFL 10 (PS2; Aug-09) 160,000
DISSIDIA: FINAL FANTASY (PSP; Aug-09) 130,000
WII FIT* (WII; May-08) 128,000
MARIO KART W/WHEEL (WII; Apr-08) 120,000
FOSSIL FIGHTERS (NDS; Aug-09) 92,000

(*includes CE, GOTY editions, bundles, etc. but not those bundled with hardware)

Madden goes deep this month and scores while Wii Sports Resort keeps relaxing in the top ten. Meanwhile, Batman: Arkham Asylum reached the top ten for both versions. I need to pick that one up somehow. PS3 and 360 are ever-so-close this month, and it's a good belief that the PS3 will outsell it (perhaps even the Wii) this September.

The DS continues to find massive success, and from almost out of nowhere Fossil Fighters rounds out the top ten. Finally, the PSP gets a victory this month by having a title in the top ten with Dissidia: Final Fantasy.
