| SCEA said: Xbox 360 is a failure in Japan......Nothing will change that |
Compared to what?
The Xbox 360 sold more in the past 3 weeks than the Xbox did all year in 2004 - the comparible year. In fact, the X360 stands a good shot over the next 2 weeks to totally destroying the 2002 record for most Xboxs sold in a year.
The X360 certainly isn't doing as well as the Wii, or Playstation 3. But given the deck that was stacked against it (tepid 3rd party support, worst launch in history), it has etched out a pretty viable place in Japan. And Fable 2 outselling Fable 1's LTD twice over in a week is certain proof of that.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
