DS breaks (more) records, Wii beats Xbox 360 in the UK, PSP gets PSone

First, some stats from Gamesindustry.biz. This month, DS has broken the UK weekly hardware sales - twice. The handheld shifted 185,000 units in the first week of December then over 200,000 last week.

Meanwhile, the site also reports that Wii is thought to have surpassed the installed user base of the Xbox 360 in the UK, selling a futher 100,000 machines last week - not bad considering the much-talked of shortages.

Elsewhere, it seems the recent PSP firmware update provides users with internet radio compatibility, plus remote play access to every PSone game via PS3.
