The Nintendo DS, Sony PSP and PlayStation saw big gains in hardware sale over last month. Industry sales for June were worth $1.69 billion, compared with $1.1 billion last month.

- DS: 783K 330.4K (+73%)
- Wii: 666.7K 8.4K (-1.26%)
- PS3: 405K 196.3K (+94.06%)
- PSP: 337K 144.3K (+74.9%)
- X360: 220K 33.4K (+17.9%)
- PS2: 188K 55.3K (+41.7%)
