1) Japanese perfer handhelds in this generation for some reason, so consoles are selling uch worse than they did in last gens. wii is the market leader and it only sold 8 million.
2) PS3 was at least 2 times more expensive than those consoles at launch and its still more expensive now.
3 ) PS3 didnt had Final Fantasy and Gran Turismo, the true system sellers in Japan.
4 ) PS3 is outselling 360 3:1 in Japan
5 ) PS3 is outselling Wii in weekly sales
6 ) PS3 has a very good chance to outsell the Wii in Japan in 2009

1) Plausable. Maybe they just don't care for either HD console.

2) Lets agree Sony made horrible mistakes.

3) I think those games get more credit than they deserve. The FF series has gone way down in sales. GT probably isn't the console mover you think it is. But we'll see I guess.

4) Who's denying that?

5) Its got a long way to catch up.

6) Possible, not good for Sony if it doesn't. Their biggest game is coming.

You're kidding me right?
