Forums - Microsoft - Can the 360 now keep selling about 10K in Japan, weekly?

Well PES 09 should put up great numbers for ps3 in JP, Then THere is Dynasty Warriors Gundam 2 which is releaseing around the same time as Dynasty Warriors 6 last year and we all know that was the month the ps3 beat the wii in Japan. Little Big Planet Will Be Huge come october, Resistance 2 can do over 100k, and of course WKC launches Christmas dya just in time for the Japanes Holiday.

Cross Edge is a mashup RPG that I believe releases this week but I'm not sure sales would be good.

lol

Have you even read what this thread is about ?

 

I'll go with option A, cause I think 8K is more realistic.

He was responding to my post, asking what PS3 games are cominig out that'd hurt the X360.

I am still looking for actual dates and not heresay.

 



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

I'm going with option C.



yeah 5-6k sounds about right.... then again if PS3 drops from their 8-10k to 6-8k the 360 could do 6-8K also...sign that it would have gained respect as an equal to PS3

I expect 8.5K sales next week, then 7K, then 6.7K ect down to about 4K... then Last remenant and holiday season should kick in, and who knows what sales will be like then!



I don't think so. I don't think the 360 has any exclusives the rest of the year, right? Unless The Last Remnant is a timed exclusive, that should help a lot, but not till mid November. I don't know, it will be lower, but then again, so will PS3.



Option C prob around 4-5k but most likely 2-3k.

Being equal to a console that's selling poorly doesn't really command any respect.

Anyway, it's not going to sustain 10K/wk. It may rise slightly to 4/5K, but even that probably won't happen as the effects of these releases will wear off. It takes a steady stream of strong titles to to make sales increase(unless it's the PSP), not just a few exclusives.

 



 

Consoles owned: Saturn, Dreamcast, PS1, PS2, PSP, DS, PS3

10k forever? I honestly doubt it.

Option C is the reasonable answer here. But if the 360 can get 5000-6000 weekly, it would be quite an accomplishment on Microsoft Japan's part to begin with.
