Discuss. 

The End Is Nigh.

That in itself speaks towards the popularity of the PS3 in Japan.

There are a few Wii games that have outsold the PS3 in japan.

"Hardcore" gaming is dead at least in Japan.

Back, PS3 lost to WiiFit, shouting a curse to the sky
With the console war trailing behind him and was 20K behind
Delayed was FFXIII in the console war; PS3 second to last
When WiiFit killed him in software sales
Destroyed him in sales
PS3 had lost in sales, the console war is now in the past

If you name what poem this is from, you get a cookie.

Final Fantasy XIII Will save us all!

Yes, Wii Play and Wii Sports have greatly outsold the PS3 in Japan. Honestly, this was supposed to be the Wii's Holy Grail in Japan, and you're all surprised that it outsold the PS3 when 2 games have already?

As for the cries of the hardcore, I don't know how one person can say that hardcore gaming is done is Japan and then another person say that the hardcore are crying. Well, if hardcore gaming is so dead in Japan, then the hardcore wouldn't care. They would have already given up, or at least I hope you all have.

Frankly we're all hardcore just for being nerdy enough to sign up for a site like this

Aww, Malstrom hasn't updated yet. I assume he has a new article written for when this happens.

Well I can't blame them. I'd rather do push-ups than play Lair, OH ZAP.

Sorry sorry. I... had to. I have a uh... condition.
