Not sure that guy believes in serve with a smile.

Well, it's one opinion, but really, is it a surprise?

360, in four years (more or less, 360 launched December 2005 Japan, right?) has racked up just over 1M units with the help of a lot of marketing dollars, exclusive (or timed exclusive) titles, etc. and what I think can be fairly deemed a massive and strong effort by MS.

The PS3, despite launching with a horrible price, few games and the loss of many titles to 360 as part of the aforementioned timed exclusives, has sold over 3.5 Million consoles in less time on the market, and with a recent huge boost thanks to the Slim and a price cut.

The Wii... well, you know.

Of course the 360's overall outlook isn't rosy, and with the regional backlash with ToV on PS3, etc. I think the console clearly took a public relations knock.

Of all the consoles in the region its the most likely to struggle to see growth until Natal launches. Not saying Natal will save 360 but it's the next thing on the horizon that could improve the console in Japan that I can see.

So, while I kind of discount a one guy opinion, in this case I reckon he's probably right, but then, he is speaking about something fairly black and white.




Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
