It is kind of pathetic that we think those hardware sales are good. If it sells like that for a whole year it will only sell 1 million units that is kind of pathetic. HW sales for consoles in Japan are really sad.

Pretty good sales.



 

166k for so4?
It's just ridiculous, so3 first week was 396k!!!
And finish at 550k +200k for the collector edition(750k).
SO4 sell much less than wkc, wkc will not beat 350k life time, for so4 300k will be great....
lt's really sad...



really good. lets hope the game keeps selling good.

 SO4 has sold 166k with only 900k consoles to sell to. SO3 had 400k with 20m consoles to sell to.

To me that makes the SO4 numbers even more amazing because 1 in 5 360 owners bought SO4 in it's first week. Where as 1 in 5000 bought So3 in it's first week.

Also as already mentioned the entire shipment of SO4 is sold out. How can you sell what is not there to sell?

And the hardware boost is low just like first week of tov 24k.
And for it's new gen, no rpg reached has to sell the double(copy) of the first week....
It's really really low...



Great numbers.


Oh, and are people really downplaying the game's sales? It's going to pass Blue Dragon at this point for Japan's best selling 360 game, what more can you ask for? It should have been obvious from the start that putting this game on the 360 would limit sales in Japan.



Pretty good numbers for x360, but expected more. This boost won't last more than a week tough. Next week PS3 should be number 1, Wii number 2 & 360 last. The 360 has grown in the country though and thats a great achivement.

I see what you did there. I'd rather see what the photographer did there though

 



Nice HW boost, always a good thing early in the year. Here to hoping that it has decent legs but I am not holding my breath. Regardless, it looks like 360 will hit 1 mil consoles sold in Japan before the end of the year and that is an amazing accomplishment for MS.
