Japan = Handheld Land.

PS3 = Currently King of Home Consoles.

The Wii only outsold the 360 by 8k. Hate to say it, but Nintendo needs a hardware moving title or price cut there soon, or it may drop next to the 360 in weekly sales.

As for PS3, looking at what released this week, I'm not too shocked at the boost. Still good to see it holding up well!

Edit: Having another look, I forgot about the quake/tsunami impact. Next week's numbers will probably show the true impact.

Dragon Quest X with a wii price cut just may boost Wii HW, if it comes out that it, we may see it at E3 aand see it released fall 2011 or mid 2012.

Let's wait and see if Dragon Quest X will stay exclusive on Wii...

There's a 99.9% chance it will, no mainline game has been released mulitplat (excluding re-makes)

Why would this game be any different? It's taken years to make the game, it was updated this year that it was still Wii-exclusive, I doubt at this point they'll be changing their console of release, especially looking at the success of DQIX...

The silence surrounding DQX tells me that perhaps it will come out on the Wii 2 instead.

And that's where the other 0.1% comes in

At this point I think there's no doubt it'll be Nintendo (and, very likely, Wii) exclusive, but, well, never say never!

Is it true that the Wii is now down by  over 250,000 units for the Year in Japan?

For that to happen the Wii will have to be down YoY around 14k a week, something I don't think has happened...yet

Down 150k, likely. Heck, even 200k is possible, but 250k seems to me like a late-April occurence

If next week numbers are down it is because of the earthquake;.. if numbers are up next week it is because of the Earthquake (replacements of their consoles)  Will be one of those two..

Fantastic PS3 sales.

And the earthquake was that week... so maybe it not impacted after all.

I wonder what the 3DS shipment/availability situation was...

Yakuza has been delayed.

Wow, all systems are hurting now. Going to be even worse in next week's numbers...

These numbers (3/7 - 3/13) include most of the week with everything normal as the earthquake was on Friday the 11th.
