- 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.

If you think being compared to the 360 in Japan is a good thing for the PS3, by all means continue to do it, but don't think you'll convince anyone except yourself with that approach. The 360 barely exists at all in Japan, and no one expected it to be otherwise.

- Regarding Winning Eleven, the situation is very simple for me: Almost every gamer in Japan has a PS2, and they had the opportunity of buying the game for the PS2 months earlier than the Wii version was released (or even announced maybe). So it's not really surprising that they bought the game for the PS2 and not for the Wii. If the Wii version had been launched simultaneously, it could have failed and you'd have a pretty solid argument then, but it's not the case.

- I didn't move from "mediocre" to anything, I didn't even mention "mediocre". The fact is that you haven't proven that those games were expected to do great in Japan. If Monster Hunter 3 fails, then we can talk about 3rd parties' disgrace in Japan.
