| Dodece said: @KillaKB I agree with your conclusion, but not necessarily the logic behind it. I see the market in Japan going through a radical culture shift during the coming months. Which probably have not shown in the charts, and may not be apparent for a few more weeks. I think the economic situation will be the real catalyst that other posters are missing. The 360 has both the price and now the library to be far more dynamic this year then last year. I think the console will have greater penetration due to increased escapism, and tighter budgets. In which case the harder nature to the console will probably have greater appeal. I cannot explain it beyond that, but I think it is worth looking beyond last years or even the charts from earlier this year. This isn't the same world we were living in a couple months ago. A lot of people lost a lot of money, and the economic picture is not pretty. To me that talks to gaming with greater depth and longevity which the 360 has, and to a better price point which once again the 360 has. The consumer may be looking for games that they can drown themselves in rather then pick up for a few minutes. |
