Er! PS3 hasn't been on sale for 3 weeks yet. The Wii costs £179, the PS3 costs £425 (£399). In other news cans of beans are outselling sirloin steak, cows are angry.

Three sales weeks; w/e 24th March, w/e 31st March and w/e 7th April.

True the PS3 was only available for two days of that first week, but it's three sales weeks none the less.

I see, sorry. But as I stated with the PS3 costing around 225% more than Wii, I'm surprised that Wii isn't selling proportionally more, although that may be down to it's limited supply. You could easily twist this story and say PS3 has generating £2.5M more than Wii in it's 3rd week.

Corrected... because they're certainly not making that much more profit than Nintendo.

I heard Nintendo are looking to get a new manufacturer to put Wii's together. Their current one can't make them any faster, hence the shortage we are all experiencing.

We all know PS3 isn't flying off shelves, but give it time. Perhaps things might change. Lol.
