U.S. console game sales fell 10 percent in May

U.S. console video game software sales fell 10.2 percent in May to $286.1 million as the industry continues to work through a transition to new console technology that has kept many consumers to the sidelines, market research group NPD said Wednesday.

Consumers are awaiting Sony's launch of its Playstation 3 console in November and Nintendo Co. Ltd.'s launch of its Wii console in the fourth quarter. Microsoft Corp. introduced its Xbox 360 last year. NPD measures nearly two-thirds of video game retail sales in the United States and makes projections for the remainder of the market. Its May data excludes sales of PC games.
