Wii and DS are both on their last legs. I realize it's mostly because of over saturation and its successor only a month away but the DS decline is truly shocking.



Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

Do Japanese really like Bluray that much?

'Cause those PS3s certainly aren't selling any games. Piracy?

Good hold for DK, but little more to celebrate.

hasn't bluray sales taken the lead over dvd long ago?

No.

Yes, back in '08. It's too bad the world doesn't follow through!

Oh, sorry.

I wouldn't expect the market share to be that different from America.

We all know the reason, why buy it when the successor is just a month away...

3DS will surely dominate the charts until PSP2 is released, then we'll enter again into the battle time...



CURRENTLY PLAYING: Xenoblade (Wii), Super mario 3D land (3DS), Guild Wars (PC)

Used game sales are really big in Japan.Many people buy games when they first come out, then they play through them really fast and sell to them stores the deal in used games. That's why many games have no legs as they are widely available for cheaper at used game stores.
