Interesting that Vegas is so close for PS3/360, usually the PS3 version is much further ahead. I've always felt 360 in Japan must sell to a sub-set of locals who like Western titles or Western residents, and whenever I see how a very Western title sells a similar amount on each (and actually more on 360 in ratio to install base) I feel sure this must be true.

I just don't see how MS can ever get enough local titles/momentum to break through the barrier of Japanese buying it as their primary console to play games on.

Otherwise, everything more or less as expected.

Now let's see the Kinect boost in US and how that squares things up WW.

Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

West game. Japan hates west. I guess.
