Forums - Sales Discussion - JAPAN MARKETSHARE: Wii 67.57% PS3 24.5% Xbox360 7.93%

Who would have thought a few years ago that we would see those numbers marketshare related to Japan.

There is not middle point in Japan, they always give a major support in every generation to one system.

I think this year PS3 would recover a little of marketshare thanks to FF13....but ups...Wii has MH3.

LOL really, I just cannot wait to see the meltdowns on this site when MH3 does not sell the millions on the Wii which the MH games do on the PSP.

It's going to be a mind fuck and I will be there laughing my ass off.

Wii obviously the monster of the home consoles but nothing compared to the handhelds. Go on, put the handhelds into the equation and lets see where the home consoles fit in there.

Final Fantasy XIII is not going to sell more than Dragon Quest X, at least in Japan.



Around the Network

Xbox 360 almost at 8%.

Thats quite the improvement over the 1% the origional Xbox had. Improvements FTW!



That is clutching onto straws hammer-of-dawn, clutching onto straws FTW!

Wii and PS3 going to be the winners this year in Japan............behind PSP and a world away from DS thanks to that monster DQ 9.

DQ IX 3 million first week!



 

^How many people do you predict will skip work/school to get that day on launch?

Just asking.

I thought DQ games were released on the weekend to discourage people from skipping work and school?
