Leave me out of it! Im not the whole Wii market in New Zealand you know?
New Zealanders have no taste, they buy PS3's in huge quantities when they cost relatively much more than the Xbox360. Watch the film "Black sheep" and you'll understand. |
It's not really your place to judge people's taste unless you've somehow become objective since I last saw you post.
You've sung this tune before Thib....and I think you're are heading toward disappointment again. Regardless it will be interesting to see if things turn out as you say.

No, Squilliam is right. New Zealanders have no taste. Both the Wii and DS are a distant last place here and this is unlikely to change anytime soon.
NZ - the last bastion against Nintendomination.
Microsoft is definately still trying in Japan...
Ninja Gaiden II probably helps fortunes right now...
And Tales of Vesperia, Star Ocean timed exclusivity, Inifinite Undiscovery, and Last Remnant timed exclusivity help. But, let's face the facts. 360 is not winning in Japan and will never win Japan...
But, 360 is doing much better then original XBox Japan and the next XBox will probably improve their standing again... Microsoft is executing a long term strategy and it is showing world wide... Back when the PS3 was first released everyone was predicting a 2007 end to 360... Here we are in mid-2008 and 360 is still comfortably ahead of PS3 in worldwide units sold to date for probably at least this year.
With the way Sony dominated last generation I think 360 is doing just fine and Microsoft has to be happy that they are still in the race at this point. 3rd Party support is very strong and any 360 owner will tell you they are more then happy with the amount and quality of content they have seen to date. There are very few third party games not coming to 360.
If Microsoft did not have the RRoD issue, Sony would be in a lot of trouble right now. That is the biggest reason anybody I talk to cites for not buying a 360 over PS3...

Um ninja gaiden doesn't sell much in japan. I believe 2 is only at 30k. Also ninja gaiden didn't really help the original xbox much. The rpgs should help though.
I believe Japanese people view Microsoft as a 200ft monster that wants to destroy them.
Don't expect over 2k anytime soon.

No, they just don't buy shoddy products.

No, but they did make a female robot for lonely males. LOL, doesn't relate, just wanted to let everyone know about this. Probably all the boys who grew up playing Pokemon.
