PS3 will win Japan bro - believe it.

 

We all know games sell consoles. Look at the Xbox 360 lineups and make your prediction again.

Brand loyalty only goes so far...

Xbox 360 Japan 2008
November - Agarest Senki: Reappearance, The Last Remnant (Timed)
December - Fable II

Xbox 360 Japan 2009
Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, Star Ocean: The Last Hope, Ninety-Nine Nights II, Halo 3: Recon, Forza Motorsport 3, Ninja Blade, Cry On

PlayStation 3 Japan 2008
October - SOCOM: Confrontation, LittleBigPlanet
November - Resistance 2, MotorStorm: Pacific Rift, Way of the Samurai 3, Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm
December - White Knight Chronicles

PlayStation 3 Japan 2009
Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Gran Turismo 5, The Last Remnant, Yakuza 3, Demon's Souls, Killzone 2, Quantum Theory

I think PS3 wins.

I crossed out titles that won't make the year you listed them in, added a title we are expecting for Xbox 360, and crossed out titles the Japanese have no interest in.  All of a sudden the lists look more even.

Notice that the top selling PS3 games outsell the top games on the XBOX 360 by far ? . Also notice the XBOX 360 is overall superior in terms of games that apeal to the japanese audience . It apears that the PS3 will sell better in terms of hardware and software when games which apeal to the japanese audience are released.


So the PS3 doesn't even need a line up of games that compares equaly or even superior with the 360's line up  , the 360 will get demolished regardless the only factor is by how much.
