In the slides for the company's CY2009 Q2 Financial Report, Activision Blizzard has given to use the hardware install bases for North America and Europe combined. Their data is as of June 30, 2009, and the data is courtesy of North American tracker NPD Group and European tracker Gfk-Charttrack.
North American and Europe Installed Base:
360: 27 million (June 2009 NPD LTD: 15.5m)
PS3: 16 million (June 2009 NPD LTD: 8m)
WII: 40 million (June 2009 NPD LTD: 20.5m)
Handhelds: 96 million
Please note that the June 2009 NPD tracking period ended on July 4th.
So, combining the latest LTDs from Japanese tracker Media Create, we get the following:
North America (06/30/09) + Europe (06/30/09) + Japan (07/26/09) Hardware Install Bases:
WII: 40m (NA/EU) + 8m (JP) = 48m approx. total
360: 27m (NA/EU) + 1m (JP) = 28m approx. total
PS3: 16m (NA/EU) + 3m (JP) = 19m approx. total
Also note that Gfk-Charttrack does not track all of Europe, but most of the major markets.
