April NPD: DS breaks a million, PS2 beats PS3

Everything old is new again. The DS makes a resurgence thanks to camera-enhanced DSi, while the PS2 makes substantial gains thanks to its price drop. Pfft? Current gen hardware? That's so passé. We can't wait until the N64 and Dreamcast surge back onto the NPD lists.

- DS: 1.04M

477K (+85%)
- Wii: 340K

261K (-43%)
- Xbox 360: 175K

155K (-47%)
- PS2: 172K
