DS, PSP, and XBox 360 sales have caused the increase in July’s sales.

Gamasutra posted the Wedbush Morgan Securities estimates for the month of July. The bad news is that they are estimates, the good news is that if WMS is right, gaming had a pretty decent month.

 

Our estimate reflects a decline of $25 million in current generation software sales (PS2, Xbox, GameCube, GBA), more than offset by an increase of $103 million in next generation software sales (Xbox 360, PSP and DS). Overall, we expect next generation software sales to total $135 million.

WMS suggests that NPD figures show six games clearing 100,000 in sales during July.

We expect July sales to be driven by recent releases Nintendo’s Super Mario Brothers, Take-Two’s GTA Liberty City Stories (PS2) and THQ’s Cars, along with new releases, Take-Two’s Prey (360, PC) and Electronic Arts’ NCAA Football 07 (PS2, Xbox, PSP, 360).

Expect final NPD figures later this week.
