The Nintendo Wii game console has again come out on top in U.S. sales for the month of April compared to other same-generation game consoles, according to a report by the NPD group. In April Nintendo sold 360,000 of the Wii consoles compared to 174,000 with the Xbox 360 and 82,000 Playstation 3’s.

The gap between Nintendo and it’s competitors seems to be widening as the Wii sales went up by a little over 100,000 units from the 259,000 that were sold in March. The second place Xbox 360 unit sales where actually down 13% from the previous month, and Sony’s PS3 unit sales dropped 37% from March.

This month the Nintendo Wii console sales even overtook the other horse Sony has in the race - the PlayStation 2. In March the PS2 beat out unit sales in all of the current-generation game consoles including the Wii and the PS3 selling 280,000 units. In April the PS2 fell to second place overall behind the Wii with 194,000 units sold, with an impressive 38 million lifetime sales.
