Much of the recent attention on console shipment numbers has focused on the late-2006 launches of the Sony PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii, but the two companies are battling each other in another sector as well.
The PlayStation Portable and DS are duking it out in the portable space, and according to news service Bloomberg, it's a bit of a lopsided affair in the consoles' home country of Japan.
Sony has confirmed that it has shipped 5 million PSPs in the island country through the end of January, compared to 14.4 million DSs shipped in Japan through 2006. Both consoles went on sale in the country in December 2004.
As for their living-room counterparts, Bloomberg cites Japanese research firm Enterbrain as saying that 1.69 million Wiis and 700,747 PS3s have been sold in Japan through late February.
