The Nintendo juggernaut rolls on. Ars Technica looks at April sales figures:

Surprising absolutely no one, Nintendo took the number one and two slots in hardware sales. The Wii sold 714,200 units while the Nintendo DS moved 414,800 units (third place sales go to the PSP with 192,700 units). This month the Wii outsold the Playstation 2, PlayStation 3, PSP, and Xbox 360… combined.

Nintendo also grabbed six of the top ten selling games for April, including Mario Kart Wii at number 2 (outselling GTA IV on PS3 but not on XBOX 360).
