Wedbush Morgan's Michael Pachter's just released his NPD estimates for February, predicting yet another giant month for Wii.

"We estimate sell-through of 725,000 Wii, 300,000 Xbox 360 and 200,000 PS3 consoles (a 26% year-over-year unit increase in consoles)," said the analysts.

"Our console sell-through forecasts reflect our belief that supplies for Wii hardware were up year-over-year. Double-digit hardware unit growth implies solid software sales growth for the succeeding year, giving us confidence in our 12% growth estimate for 2009 U.S. software sales."

The final figures release this Thursday.
