According to a new survey by game magazine, Enterbrian, Nintendo Co. Ltd.'s Wii game console outsold Sony Corp.'s PlayStation 3 by a ratio of more than 4 to 1 in Japan in July.

Nintendo sold 396,752 units of the Wii in the five weeks ended July 29, compared with 91,987 units of the PS3.

The PS3 which comes inbuilt with Sony’s new Blu-Ray high definition DVD has been behind Wii in sales since its launches late last year due to its high price and lack of strong gaming titles. Their American rival Microsoft sold 17,970 units of its Xbox 360 in July in Japan.
