In constant dollars, retail sales in our Asia Pacific, Americas and EMEA regions increased 35%, 34% and 11% during the nine month period.
Retail unit sales increased 14% and 21% during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010 compared with the same periods in the preceding fiscal year. In the three months ended December 31, 2010, our retail average selling price increased 3% compared with the three months ended December 31, 2009, and increased 16% compared with the three months ended September 30, 2010, reflecting in part the launch of Logitech Revue in October 2010. Our retail average selling price for the nine months ended December 31, 2010 was 1% lower than the same period in fiscal year 2010. Sales of our retail products priced above $100 represented 24% of total retail sales in the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 19% in the nine months ended December 31, 2010, compared with 17% and 14% in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2009. Foreign currency exchange rates negatively affected the percentage increase of our retail sales, as our constant dollar retail sales increases for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010 were 21% and 23% compared with increases of 17% and 19% in U.S. dollars.
Approximately 46% and 43% of our total net sales were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010 compared with approximately 54% and 51% in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2009. If foreign currency exchange rates had been the same in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, our constant dollar total net sales increases would have been 26% and 30% instead of 22% and 26%, primarily reflecting the stronger U.S. dollar in 2010 compared with 2009.
In the Americas region, retail sales increased 31% and 35% and retail units sold increased 6% and 16% in the Americas region in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010 compared with the same periods in the prior fiscal year, reflecting strong sales of products with higher average selling prices and in particular, Logitech Revue. All product lines produced double digit percentage sales increases in both the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2010 compared with the same periods in the prior year. Sales of the Digital Home product line were especially strong, based on the newly-launched Logitech Revue. If foreign currency exchange rates had been the same in the Americas region in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, our constant dollar retail sales increases would have been 30% and 34%.
Sales in our EMEA region declined 1% in the three months and increased 2% in the nine months ended December 31, 2010 compared with the same periods in 2009. Sales in the EMEA region were impacted by the uneven economic recovery in Europe, with strong sales performance in some countries largely offset by weaker markets such as the U.K. Foreign currency exchange rates impacted our sales in U.S. dollars, as our EMEA constant dollar retail sales increases were 7% and 11%. Retail units sold in our EMEA region during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010 increased 4% and 12% compared with the prior fiscal year, in line with the constant dollar sales increases. The results by product family for EMEA retail sales in U.S. dollars varied, with remotes showing strength in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010 compared with 2009, whereas keyboards and desktops declined in both periods.
