Nah it is because HW/SW sales are quite small compared to Others and NA.

Yes, where are they?

I should change the title of this thread to "Talk about the Wii WW sales, and not the other four consoles in Japan"

Sheesh.

Yeah, awesome Nintendo...

Back on topic: What does everyone think about Japanese sales of all consoles.

I think that the PS3 is doing very, very poorly and if this trend continues it will become irrelivant to Japan and japanese developers.

Irrelevant to japanese developers? um yeah ok like the 360 eh?

People are calling it boring because they were expecting a huge boost in hardware sale due to holiday, but it didn't happen.

Let's see what MGS 4 can do. there are 100k limited edition MGS bundles from sony, as well as some from Konami, so that should certainly boost sales there, the question is, when are games like White Knight Chronicles and the Last Remanant coming?

The official general consensus on that is "later" apparently...

What is there to even talk about in terms of Japanese console sales? 360 is basically dead, PS3 is just barely holding on and desperately needs FF13, DS is still low because there hasn't been a huge release in a year-and-a-half, and the PSP is still doing well while not selling many games.

The entire topic was summed up in the very first word, what's left to talk about?

You do not have the right to never be offended.

Golden week didn't boost PS3 sales, that has to be a bit worrying for sony.
Wii doing even better then normal.

It seems the UK is getting to be a larger market then japan now.
