Pachter Thinks PS3 Closed Gap on 360 Last Month
April 13, 2009 | 8:56 AM PST

by: Joe Ryan

Everyone's favorite analyst, Wedbush Morgan's Michael Pachter, has begun revealing some predictions in advance of the NPD numbers landing on Thursday and this time it's good news for PS3.

Pachter predicts that the PS3 closed the gap on 360 compared to February, despite the fact that the 360 still sold more in March. He gives these estimations: 800,000 Wii, 400,000 360, and 350,000 PS3 consoles were sold last month.

In a note released by Pachter this afternoon, he writes, "Our console sell-through forecasts reflect our belief supply and demand for Wii hardware are finally in balance, with most of the upside in unit sales attributable to growing demand for the Xbox 360 and PS3."

PS3 getting closer to selling as much as 360 every month is a good thing for sure, but it hardly seems like the type of victory that Sony was dying for. In any case, these are just predictions made by analysts. When the NPD numbers drop on Thursday, I or someone else will likely have an update on them for you. Stay tuned!
