The Xbox 360 had the best ever launch of any non-portable console in the UK. However, the DS sold 87,000 and the PSP sold 185,000 over the same length launch periods.

To be honest, the PS2 and the GameCube both sold out at launch, but what we are seeing is an increase in production capacity over the years.

Almost every unit has sold for every console launch in the UK since the PS2, with the exception of the original Xbox.

That's why the Xbox had a price drop six weeks after launch in the UK!
