Yakuza 3 Helps PlayStation 3 Sales Beat DSi, PSP

Last week, the Xbox 360 enjoyed a boost in sales from the release of Star Ocean 4: The Last Hope. This week, PS3 sales more than doubled to 36,513.

It has Sega’s Yakuza 3 to thank for its jump in sales, with the game selling 372,000 units in its first week in the software sales chart.

PS3's performance eclipsed even the Nintendo DSi – which fell by 6,000 units to 35,827. Technically, though, the DS was still the best selling hardware platform of the week, with DS Lite sales of 11,774 making for a combined total of 47,601 units.
