July NPD: Everyone sees red, Nintendo still on top

After everyone saw gains last month (with one devilish exception), July's NPD figures revealed North American hardware unit sales declined across all companies, but otherwise the list is the same as it was in June. What's starting to unnerve us is Nintendo's data. To be able to say a company went from 666 to 555 (a difference of 111) is a bit creepy, dontcha think?

In terms of software, the Xbox 360 version of NCAA Football 09 barely eked out Wii Fit, while Wii Play w/remote still manages to move up a slot from 5 to 4 this month. Here are this month's NPD hardware sales figures:

- DS: 608K

175K (-22.35%)
- Wii: 555K

111K (-16.7%)
- PS3: 224.9K

180.1K (-44.5%)
- PSP: 221.7K

115.3K (-34.21%)
- Xbox 360: 204.8K

15.2K (-6.91%)
- PS2: 155.5K

33K (-17.6%)

You'll find the top ten in software sales after the break.
