According to a report by market research company Strategy Analytics, Sony's PlayStation 3 "now has more active devices globally than Microsoft's Xbox 360".
The data collected, analysed and released by the company states that the PS3 "had an installed user base of 43.4 million by the end of 2010, slightly higher than Xbox's 42.9 million."
The Wii has 75.5 million globally.
A report on ITproportal says that SA "believes that the trend will continue for the coming few years. SA estimates that the PS3 will sell 15.7 million in 2011, followed by Xbox 360 with 13.7 million units and Wii with 10 million units."
Microsoft's failure to market Xbox properly outside the US has allowed Sony to dominate the European, Japanese and now, global market for gaming consoles.
Strategy Analytics' Digital Consumer Practice analyst Jia Wu, comments that “While the Kinect peripheral has given a boost to Microsoft’s Xbox 360 strategy, the console’s performance outside of the US continues to disappoint.”
