I work in Akihabara (in Japan) and there are no Xbox360 shortages here at the Yodabashi Store (biggest electronics store in Japan). They have stock of all models and more available on their website.

Apart from that congrats again to Xbox360. M$ are doing some great advertising in Japan. Most advertising is about 3 JRPGs, Last Rem, IU and Tales. Good to see Sony finally getting competition. Hopefully this will wake them up a bit. Though i doubt Sony will do anything yet. Oct is big for Sony so have to wait and see what happens.

 

Just out of curiosity, are people still selling those 360's back once they are done with whatever game they were interested on or has the turnover rate gone down?

 

LOL not sure about that. Yodabashi dont sell used products. I have checked a local game store near my house in Urawa that sells new and used games and consoles and havent noticed any used ones yet.

EDIT: My bad posted the wrong link. Here http://list4.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/2084235549-category-leaf.html shows new and used Xbox360s for sale. Yahoo Auctions Japan is a very popular palce for the Japanese to sell new and used goods at great deals so a lot of Japanese shop here before shopping at stores.
