360+PS3+Wii

Japan: 6.437+4.771+25.490 = 36.698

"Others": 67.823+73.618+169.874 = 311.315


Japan is 11.79 percent of "Others"....

Haha I think the 360 is taking the PS3 down with it in Japan. Because only where 360 can go is down and might be taking PS3 along for the ride haha. Luckily PS3 has some stuff later in the year or this could be bad.

Otherwise hopefully PSP 3000 and eventually DSi will help give the Japanese market some ups and improve the market as a whole.

Well, 2 things:


- First, ps3 will definitly be the FIRST console in europe, you may think it's funny, but just have a look a the number, don't forget that it's still at 400€... And look at pes software, just amazing ...

- Then, Japan is over... Oh yes I know 170K psp sold, blablabla, but what about the other consoles: peanuts. It's time for vgchartz to make 3 new sections: North America, EUROPE (and only europe), and others (including japan, and the rest of the world). As european, I'm pretty bored to be just an "other", and moving way more consoles than japan...

360 with 2 big pricecuts this year, being cheaper than the wii, i think PSP and getting close to ps2 and DS prices.

and still can't outsell the ps3?

PSP owned japan this week, it totally RAPE every other consoles even all put together.

ps3 low in japan too low to be true, major shortages its impossible its selling so low in its home town.

now the DS will get a boost too, what will happen to consoles?
