From GAF:

I took a look at the number of games that were released this year in Japan {2011.01.03 - 2011.03.20} (Twin packs aren't counted as different SKUs, budget releases are included in the total number)

PSP - 55 (20 budget)
PS3 - 37 (6 budget)
360 - 27 (2 budget)
NDS - 25 (4 budget)
3DS - 13 (0 budget)
WII - 7 (2 budget)
PS2 - 2 (1 budget)

lol.  Looking at this, it's almost a miracle Wii is still pulling ~10k weekly.  Jesus christ Nintendo/3rd Parties, I don't think you could've fucked this one up any harder!

It's much more the third parties fault, Nintendo can't released a Wii game every month and also support the 3DS launch. Heck, even the Xbox 360 has had 4 times more launches than the Wii! The Xbox 360. (Granted, most of them were multiplatform with the PS3).



Above: still the best game of the year.

Yeah, Wii was pretty much the only shot Japan had a PS2-like home console this cycle, and 3rd parties blew it.  Nintendo's not blameless though, they should've done much more to get them on board, but man, what a missed opportunity.

Awesome, go PS3!  A little odd for the PSP numbers, but still okay I think.  And just lol at PS2 beating current gen consoles, the PS2 is immortal lol.


Ironically, it probably proves it isnt immortal... most likely that the vast majority of PS2's bought in 1st world countries are replacements.

Hey, you must be doing something right if the consoles around long enough to need replacement.  I'm gonna buy another one when Sony announces its discontinuation even though I have a 60 gb.  Love that little guy!

PS3 still in a dominatrix. Wii makes me sad and the 360 is just BAD there. Go PS2 you mad black cat!

Seeing as that sentence is grammatically incorrect, I must ask....do you know what "dominatrix" means?!  LOL

Where are those that said Japanese sales would be almost zero because they had more important things to take care of?


Well I was one of them... whats your point? 

It wasnt a statement made out of glee, it was the opposite.  

Why are you trying to score some shitty points from this?  

Cheap!

why are you getting so worked up about it? :S

not remotely worked up about it... just think its a bit of a cheap shot given the circumstances.  relax.


I thought some who thought that Japanese sales would be almost zero if not zero were cheap shots by wanting a natural disaster that endangers lives to distrupt sales.  Now that's real cheap, far cheaper than pezus' statement.

get a grip...  wanting and expecting are two vastly different things.  thats the cheapest shot yet.

Oh, I agree.  I'm just glad I'm not the one making that claim.
