XB360 - 0
Why do they continue to release games in Japan for the 360?



Fastrabbit09 on 12 January 2008

9 hd games in a market with 50% hdtv penetration

still all evidence points towards gamers not caring about hd graphics enough to make it the decision maker for the masses



Bets:Missed by 420k I bet leo-j vg$500 that wii will sell 31 million by 7/31/08.  Sorry, I don't think he has enough vg$ to make it with all of u that wish you could. Hit, with room to spare I bet kingofwale a 1-week ban that wii Americas ltd sales>360 Americas ltd sales as of the numbers for week ending 7/05/08 (using vgchartz homepage #s)

Predictions:

Wii will sell 18-20mil by 12/31/07  CHECKWii will sell 45mil+ WW by 12/31/08Wii will surpass PS2 sales WW by 11/17/11 (5yr anniversary)Wii Fit will hit 12mil sales in 2009MKWii+SSBB+Wii Fit+SMG > 50 mil sales by 2010 > gta4+mgs+gt5+ff13+haze+lbp

Yet another year of Nintendomination in Japan - just like the last 2 or 3 (since the DS arrived really).

Next year the PS2 will probably drop to under 10 titles, the Wii will increase to take up the slack - and the challenge is on the PS3 to pick up where the PS2 left off.

Its scary that the #1 title only sold 2m units - next year will have DQ9 (#1 easy), maybe challenged by WiiFit at #2.

Will MGS break 1m in Japan?

"Will MGS break 1m in Japan?"

LOL, Throw out an impossible sales target so you can say it bombed no matter how much it sells on release. I like your style.



Lafiel on 12 January 2008

Fastrabbit09 )

9 HD games ? which games apart from the PS3 games do you consider to be HD? (PSP? - those aren't in HD)



fkusumot on 12 January 2008

Needs more DS titles in the top 50.


I Blame Wii Fit!

hunter_alien on 12 January 2008

Lol .. MHF2 is actually #2 in the yearly charts ... and people where saying that it will drop to #5-10 lol
