Looks like the 360 boost was down to MH after all and not the slim, as sales are rapidly dropping back to where they were.

PS3 and Wii so close now most weeks, I wonder if Sony are tempted to try and drop the price just a bit and see if that could pull in a bit more demand?

If 360 stays in that range or below with the 360s model then I'm doubting Kinect will make much difference in Japan either.

All the action for the HD consoles is going to be in US and Others now it looks like.

why would they do that? they are almost matching and demand is already there?  

they dont care about being slightly above the wii or slightly below it.

they care about revenue and profits.

...and the 360 is a pointless discussion topic for Japan.  I jave a 360S now, a fine machine - looks good, is compact and solid.. if that doesnt garner interest there nothing will. they are clearly not interested for whatever reason. Their loss. 

 

MS should just give up in Japan already

 

the 360 slim was a failure in Japan

 

I don't know why MS spends money on Japanese exclusives, the 360 is dead in Japan and has been for a long time

 

MS should save their money for Americas and Others region, because MS is dead in Japan
