Pachter "surprised" by low PS3 and 360 sales in April

VG247: Wedbush Morgan's Michael has issued a research note exclaiming "surprise" at sluggish 360 and PS3 console sales in April. Both machines came in well under his previous estimates.

"We were surprised by relatively weak PS3 and Xbox 360 sales, especially given the launch of Grand Theft Auto IV late in the month," he said. "We had expected sales of both consoles to increase month over month, as we thought that many potential console owners were waiting for the game to launch before purchasing a console."
