@jarrod, one game is not enough.
There must be several big games for success in Japan.

Again, strong support =/= big sales, but a lot of games. And PS3 owns Saturn/N64/GC in terms of quantity and quality of 1st/2nd party games. Though, most games are west oriented.

Also, +-5k i count as around 30k+ levels. I mean, 27-28k it`s still around 30k+.
I don`t expect PS3 to go below 25k for 5 week in Japan during 2010.

@saicho, i don`t make bets for half a year or a year. That would take to much time for waiting.

Both the past 2 gens, Sega and Nintendo's "losing" console have absolutely raped PS3 1st party wise. This isn't opinion, it's fact.

Maybe, 1st/2nd party PS3 games are less popular in Japan. But overall, this is a strong support.

PS3 was initially 60k.

Yakuza 3 vs Yakuza 4, FFXIII vs GT5+FFXIV, ToV vs SO4+EoE, RE5 vs LP2+DR2 and there still left other games.
