PS3 is doing way better this year than it has for the past two years in japan. I wonder How long it will take for it to reach 4million in japan

 

Really?

Jan to March 21st Japan.

2009  330,231

2008  335,263

2007  347,968

Its actually its worst showing over this period for any year so far..... interesting isnt it...

It only feels better because the Wii has dropped so much.

360 for comparison

Jan to March 21st Japan

2009  136,779 

2008  50,624

2007  78,227

So 2009 > 2008 + 2007

Looking at the PS3 and 360 numbers... its amazing how the mind plays tricks isnt it.. 

 

I think those numbers are a testament to how well both are doing. Sony seems to be posting very steady numbers while Microsoft has improved a lot. I think they should both be proud of these figures. Sony moreso because of the economic situation the world is in and the PS3 price point.

Edit: I think a discussion on these numbers would make a good thread about the console trends in Japna this gen. You should try that and post the Wii numbers.
