Forums - Sales Discussion - OK 1 week SALES calm down

NPD will shut every one again just like it did last time in July.

Interesting but far to late.



It isn't really the fact that the 360 sold well for one week, it is more so the fact that the 360 outsold the Wii for a week. I mean we all know by now release a few JRPGs and a price drop and the sales will go up in Japan. But for it to have this kind of an impact on an American product that has been basically invisible in Japan is really a big mark for Microsoft. You have to admit, this time last year no one thought the 360 could outsell every console except the DS for a week.

Japan is too hard to call.

Too hard to call?  Is there really any confusion in where the XBox 360 will finish there?  Seriously, you think it might finish somewhere other than last?

If its the ps3 over the wii Id understand, that happens sometimes, but the 360 over the wii, is insane and in JAPAN.



 

mM

when it passes the wii WW that would be crazy



It obviously isn't X360 owners who are the main reason for all the fuss. According to this: http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=41845, less than 10% of the site should look overly optimistic at this, and roughly 25% should be overly negative.

And as ~ 2/3 on the site are now ûber commenting pro X360, everyone who doesn't have a pessimistic attitude towards it is mentioning it.

Oh...

Well, that's a game only coming out three months from now... So it'll all be okay for Sony to get slapped in their home territory by the xbox as long as they have WKC coming out three months later to go "ha! told you"? :-/
