Most analysts say the spike in sales for the PS3 can be attributed to the the games Ryu Ga Gotoku 3 and Resident Evil 5 which both sold very well for the console.
Sony sold 146,948 units for the month, compared to 99,335 Wii consoles.
Many believe the numbers will be back to "normal" next month however. "PS3 hardware sales picked up due to brisk-selling software. But I don't see any drastic change in the industry landscape," added Okasan Securities analyst Masashi Morita.
