I'm not sure if this has to do with excess demand or underwhelming demand , looking at the 360 install base in japan i'm guessing it's the latter.

 

Explain to me how something not having enough supply to meet demand led you to the conclusion that the demand must have been "underwhelming?" We can't exactly quantify demand, since MS didn't meet it.

Are you speaking on the completely different subject of ordinary demand being so low that they under-estimated demand this week?

It sounds to me like you're trying to spin this information to somehow look like the 360 and ToV didn't perform spectacularly in Japan, when in fact it was the best hardware mover the console had ever seen, and sold to about 20 percent of the 360 userbase in Japan, which is, believe it or not, suprisingly large, especially considering that this game isn't what we consider a "blockbuster" here in the states. It's just probably the first real franchise JRPG released on an HD console, and the Japanese ate it up.

I can't wait to play it, myself.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
