Forums - Sales - 360 Sales over Ps3 In Japan

LOL. The 360's biggest title in Japan yet released so far, it only beats the PS3 by 14k on a normal PS3 week and the 360 fanboys are going mad. Desperation is funny.



MGS4!

It's not a matter of it being outsold, but a matter of te 360 selling nearly 24K in a week in Japan, when it generally sold 1k.

Ps3 sales this year - 6,278,654
x360- 4,783,612

and people are worried about a couple of weeks.
Look at the hardware sales since launch. If x360 and ps3 were lanched at the same time, ps3 would be ahead by 3 million units. Don´t worry, ps3 will beat x360. Not so sure about wii, but then wii is the definitive console. people will start buying Wii even faster, just wait, or

you think some of the 30 million wii owners can go by without games like:
gta4 I'm fine with that
or gow3 Happily go without it.
or even gt5. Not too interested.
And I didn´t even touch the sports subject. I don't buy sports games.... in fact Wii Sports has been the first Sports game I enjoyed. (except Snowboard games, though they are not traditional sports games)
Please, apart from tennis and golf and maybe baseball, you can even think about playing this genre in a wii. PES 08 for Wii is the first football game I have been considering as well.
So people will get tired of wii and get another console. I have played the Wii for over 2000 hours since February 2007
When they have friends or family at home, wii is very welcome, but when alone and willing to have a serious game experience, you´ll get a x360 or ps3 That's odd, because those 2000 hours have been mostly just me.... my family/flatmates have played a good bit of Wii Sports with me of course, and some Wii Play, but otherwise only 1 session of SSX Blur and 2 of Mario Kart Wii have been played with family/friends. (unless you count online friends but then I suppose you didn't think of that regarding PS360 anyway)

( in my opinion a ps3, but taht´s me). I agree with this, there are actually some PS3 games I would consider buying, wheras for X360 there is very little appeal at all.

Wow... it's, as if you are in the minority (believe me the Wii will take 50%+ of the market, probably nearer 60%)

I find it more shocking that PS3 is below 10k again.

Why?  I thought everyone assumed it would go back under 10k shortly after the MGS4 release.

The Xbox 360 is doing better in Japan slowly by slowly and the PS3 is doing worse, slowly by slowly.  Maybe Square should announce FF13 for the 360 in Japan too.

 



we will just have to see what happens next week and the week after to really find out.

Not first time and as a single week its meaningless unless the 360 settles to an average rate higher than that before ToV released... if that doesn't happen within another 5 to 6 weeks PS3 will have easily made back the lost sales in Japan.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Bah, what's 14k. Just wait till FFXIII comes out in Japan, you'll see things like :

PS3: 80K
360: 3K

PS3 will never live up to PS2 in japan.



Hopefully this serves as a wake up call to SCEJ...we'll see

but seems it still didnt outsell it worldwide. thing is if it hadnt beat PS3 it would have been last in all 3 regions
