This is a list of video game console sales. See also Best selling video games.

Notes on using this list

Please keep in mind:

  1. Video game sales statistics change on a daily basis.
  2. Video game sales statistics are difficult to come by.
  3. Although this list strives to be sales world-wide, some data is currently based solely on US or North American sales.

Because of these reasons, please:

  1. Think of sales numbers as the minimum amount of units sold, not the precise amount.
  2. Help adjust these statistics as new information becomes available, and quote your sources.
