6k normal? this is a minor boost due to a JRPG being released thats all. Happened when Blue Dragon was released and the other RPGs.

The PS3's shortage is really starting to show. Once that 80GB model is launched things will go back to normal, actually probably will be better.

 

Be serious for a minute and use common sense. PS3 routinely sold 10000 or less in Japan before MGS4 launch. How can you say that PS3 has shortage? MGS4 is already in the bargain bin in Japan.

I wouldn't call 360 "great" but atleast this indicates that next week 360 beats ps3 in japan...with Tales release and all.

Yeah, and that'll be "great." Because none of you ever say that PS3 is "dead" in Japan.

 

 

I have beem saying that the PS3 is dead in Japan for sometime. It is PS3 fanboys in denial such as yourself that have been saying differently. The fact that the 360 is closing in on the PS3 in weekly sales only confirms my position.

 

Who sells more?  Who spent shitloads to buy JRPGs to very little avail?  Who will sell more lifetime?  Which console is an overheating laughingstock?

Wait a minute, I thought thats what you guys said about the 360 in japan?

 

I'm confused....

 

PS3: currently lifeless relative to PS2.  360: even more lifeless despite huge MS efforts on the Japanese games front.

As for my comment to disolitude, I was saying that 360 beating a "dead" console for one week can't be so great, if you think about it...

So in other words you are conceding the point that the PS3 is dead in Japan. However, instead being man enough to admit it, you resort to flamebait. As usual PS3 fanboys cry about MS buying exclusives when Sony did the very same thing to get on top in the first place. You didn't care when Sony was paying off developers and you didn't care when they were releasing unreliable hardware. If you were gamer you'd go where the games are but you are a fanboy that holds allegiance to a corporation that couldn't careless about you. That is both sad and pathetic.

Next week 360 will surely beat ps3, interesting with ps3 is that it sold more during the same period last year even when it cost more.
