"Poised" its not same thing like passed. So still no one gave me fact that X360 sold more than Wii in US.

Do you want to make a bet. Because I shouldn't have to do your research for you. 

I dont want a bet, but DonFerrari clearly comes from wrong Wii numbers. I provided offical accurate numbers for Wii, you claiming same thing like he does, than pls provide fact that proves that, because I cant find officall numbers for 360 sales in US.

Hate to say this, but why would anyone care about Japan? What on earth do they buy there as far as videogames go anyway? Dating sims and Pokemon??? Gotcha! Oh, and RPG's like FF (not so much anymore like they used to) and DQ.

Japan loves the simplicity of Nintendo games...except Zelda. I'm shocked games like the Zelda's don't do huge numbers there like GTA does here.

Because Japan was always single strongest gaming market after US.

Yeah didn't think so. 



last gen was an anomaly wii did dominate from 2006-2010. 360 staged a great comeback after the launch of Kinect and wii sales and support started plummeting.

It seems like you are making an argument without doing research or providing facts. Miyamotoo is the only one that used official numbers to support his claim. You and DonFerrari did not.



tag:"reviews only matter for the real hardcore gamer"

Japan is definitely selling 30m+ Switches lifetime.  You see there are basically two types of gamers in Japan: those who prefer the 3DS and those who prefer the Vita.  Both types of gamers are getting a Switch!

And those who prefer Wii U. Add them to the list as well.

Um, that's not how facts work.  Is there an official statement from Nintendo saying the Wii sold the most units in the US during its time on sale?  Only NPD will have access to that information.  All we know is that Nintendo shipped that many units to the 'Americas'...which includes more than just the US.

Do you have something against Japanese Games? Like what are you trying to prove?
