Newly released sales data show the company’s beleaguered PlayStation 3 gaming platform saw a significant jump in sales for the month of June.

NPD reported an overall video game market increase of 31 percent over the same period last year in the U.S. As it has consistently done in recent months, Nintendo led the pack in unit sales with its Wii console and DS portable player.
