- Don't make me laugh, did you just bring up the 360 in a comparison regarding Japan? The very fact that you have to compare the PS3 to the 360 only makes your argument weaker. PS3's direct competitor in Japan is the Wii, as that's the console which can effectively compete with it. The Wii has already stolen one big Japanese exclusive from the PS3, now that's what I call competition.

- Winning Eleven Wii was launched very late, all the football maniacs surely bought it for the PS2 and aren't going to buy the same game twice. Konami has itself to blame for that one (if they really care that is). I don't know if Zack & Wiki was supposed to do good in Japan, as I don't know their tastes that well, but it's an unproven franchise unlike most of the ones which have done mediocre to poor on the PS3. The same goes for No More Heroes, which seems like a very niche title.

 

- Only because you dont like to see it from the perspective, you just choose to stay with the perspective that doesnt make the situation seem more reasonable for the PS3. In the HD market the 360 is definitely the PS3 direct competitor.

User base wise? I can give you that. But despite it seems to be a good interest on the PS3. Youre just being silly, looking the other way just to not see it. 

Nintendo may have gotten Monster Hunter III. Í can give you that Winning Eleven is one lucrative series that has failed on the Wii compared to the PS3. I will wait see how others which may possible share the platform with the PS3 will perform before I pass a definite judgement.

- Launching very late or not is absolutely a weak arguement aswell . If the userbase is there as it is claimed to be the sales should've completely overshadowed the PS3 counterpart. I mean come on guys, youre all over how many more Wii consoles have been sold in Japan. The sold consoles should've and extreme difference. Where is it?

So now you move on from "mediocre 3rd party games" to being "unproven franchises". Com'on.

I didnt think the some Wii owners would resort to excuses. This just shows that both PS3 owners and Wii owners are getting VERY protective over their situation in Japan. And this goes to show that both groups are trying to "guillotine" each for their own lack luster performances on both sides.
