Consumers bought 335,000 Wii consoles and 127,000 of Sony Corp.'s PlayStation 3 consoles in February. Both systems debuted in November, and the Wii is priced at $250, compared with the $600 top-end version of the PS3.
Microsoft's Xbox 360, which came out in November 2005, sold 228,000 units, making it the second-biggest selling console in February.
