Forums - Sales - JAPAN Sales UP!! - 360 does EPIC Sales....WOW!

Wii and 360 a virtual tie given margin of error. Good week for 360. Got those shipments in. This has to be one of the biggest weeks since launch.

PSP falling into oblivion.....PS3....OUCH....WKC should help

But will these sales for 360 sustain? Will these low Wii sales sustain? Can the EPIC Level 5 RPG save PS3 from the depths of semi-hell?

All our questions will be answered in the future!

 

So are you really banking your PS-hope on a title that'll only come out on Christmas day (what a day to pick your release date...)

So, Japan is Christian/Western now, right?

Personally, I'd go for the 21st.

 

Ah, and congrats 360!

 

 

 

I would've pushed it more to the front of december, that's all...

(and I just read another thread on WKC, they haven't not finished the game yet, so I can understand the release date, but I think a release date a bit earlier would be a better option)



"WKC should help"


==> in just ... 3 MONTHS !!!!



Time to Work !

good job Microsoft, good job...

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Finally some Microsoft numbers who are positive in Japan.



Wii and PS3 aren't consoles I'd worry about. Still the console to worry about in Japan is the 360 when considering sales even if it did take this anomaly on the week haha.

Wii sales really now are dependent on game releases and holidays to keep up steady sales and of course it is the time of the year when sales are down in general. Wii will do fine later on this year when some more games release and of course the holidays.

Same really for the PS3 as it'll feed off new releases and brand.

360 however still doesn't have the brand appeal as the other 2 and will need consistent sales from this week to holidays to maintain it which is doubtful. But we'll take it week by week and see how 360 does this current week.

As for DS and PSP, it seems PSP has shown it doesn't have lasting power cause as PSP fell for the bad months DS has virtually stayed the same if not increased. Brand is always the thing that'll outlast the others and unfortunately for PSP it has always been DS. Riding off the wave earlier in the year did last awhile but was past due.



Hypothetically speaking, does anyone else think that if all these exclusive X360 JRPGs (LO, BD, ToV, IU, TLR, SO4) were exclusively on PS3 that the PS3 would be selling 25-30k a week for awhile now?



To tell you the truth,im happy the xbox360 out sold the ps3 this week. this will let sony know they need some @#$@ RPG's......good job MS. (im the BIGGEST sony fan by the way)
