Hmm this maybe sounds strange but I think 900.000 PS3's sold in Japan is still good the price is damned high and tell me a game that is out now on PS3 that Japanese people love. Gundam musou that is almost everything and Gundam Musou did not bad.

 PS one sold his first years also bad in Japan but when games like FFVII and MGS comes on it it sold crazy like hell.  I am pretty sure many Japanese people thinks: Why should I buy an PS3 it has no games that I love.

The PS3 is lacking in good software games like the PS2 did at his first year(s).

Also PS2 is still in the round there are still a lot avarage Japanese games that comes on PS2 soon.

In fact you must be crazy to buy an PS3 for so much money when you have a PS2 that still haves games that will be released soon that they maybe like. We have to wait till Japanese popular games come out in Japan like FF and MGS. 

What's really funny is that there are better software sales for the 360 then the PS3

too bad developer dont think that way and wait for those two game to release in 2008, and see if it will sell system or not, and one more thing; ps3 is alot cheaper in jp than the rest of the world. If ps3 dont pick up sales by this holiday season, I'll garanteed you developer will abandon most of its resource from PS3, because the risk and cost is too large.

There is plenty of DOWNLOADABLE content available for the PS3. More and more, you won't see "boxed" products tell the full tale of a console. Specifically, the demo for Ninja Gaiden is now available - that alone would probably drive sales. And as for this: "The PS3 is lacking in good software games like the PS2 did at his first year(s)." - check the charts. There is NO sales comparison between the PS2/PS3 at any stage since release. The PS2 has 1m units sold within weeks, and software that launched also sold in the 500-700k range.

 Blue Dragon, Dead Or Alive are some of the games that Japanese like.

Pity X360 sell bad with their units but I guess they don't care much they make profit with their software their whil Sony is only losing;.

An attach rate of less than 1 is just crazy low. Wii software sold 33 times as much as PS3 software!

The problem is Sony seemed to forget why they succeeded with the PS1  in the first place.  They gave a platform with CD / DVD that was easily and cheaper to access for all third parties.  With the PS3 - exactly the opposite is given, with that amount of space / power to work with it was always going to come down to budget for games development and you'll get less frequent releases as small companies will be put off and just wont bother.

 It's turned a full circle with the Wii / DS and I the PS3 haS made that more relevant this time round.
