Nice one PS3, HD has now retaken Japan!


It certainly never had taken Japan before and it has not to this day either. Portables own Japan and they sure are not HD. Besides Wii is still way ahead of PS3 despite the very good sales of the slimversion.

Alright, let me rephrase that, CORE HOME CONSOLES have retaken Japan with CASUAL HOME VIDEOGAME TOYS are (is) on their way down.


The HD userbase is now 5 million, compared to Wiis 8.5 million. Even the PS3 on its own is showing greater third-party sales, heck even the 360 is beating it on smaller titles!

Seems odd given the best selling 3rd party CORE HOME CONSOLE GAME so far this year is on the CASUAL HOME VIDEOGAME TOY. :P

True the HD systems generally have better 3rd party sales, but then they also generally get the better 3rd party content.  Hard not to make a connection there, especially when the few times Wii does get an attractive 3rd party brand (DQ Swords, Monster Hunter, Taiko, etc) they sell like crazy.
