One problem, isn't this over time? This means the PS3 has sold more at this point in time than the DC did in the same amount of time. The PS3 is ahead when you're comparing the amount sold to the time it took each one.

Or am I confusing the lines? I'm red-green colorblind, so it's hard for me to tell which is which.

Does that help?

Yeah, thanks...that still means the PS3 sold more than the DC in less time, right?

Playstation 3 may have defeated the Dreamcast in Japan, but the Saturn reigns supreme, and may never be defeated.

I only see that Sony mangaed to pull out of the same track the DC was in and is now doing better

And there are more than enough anticipated PS3 games lined-up for Japan. MGS4 will help considerably in the short term. Once Final Fantasy and a slimline PS3 launches I predict Japan will go PS3 crazy.
