Forums - Sales - Any blog/site detailing LBP Japan launch...?

Just wandering...i know we will have day one sales data tomorrow. but i remember ppl uploaded pics and anecdotal stories on MGS4 launch in Japan..

So wandering how it went after all.



Around the Network

so we don't have any friend from Japan ?



It launches tomorrow I think

besides LBP has had such a terrible botched launch....who knows how the japanese are planning to release it & when they are...



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

@ darth: MM's site states 30th as the release for Japan, so it came out today normally.



oh right.....my bad

Yeah, it should have come out today (along with all the other new games). I didn't go to any stores in my area today, but I'm pretty sure there wouldn't be any lines. I mean I went to the stores when the new PSP came out and there weren't any lines for it and it sold what 170k or something? I'm pretty sure the PS3 won't reach those numbers...




starcraft: "I and every PS3 fanboy alive are waiting for Versus more than FFXIII.
Me since the games were revealed, the fanboys since E3."

Skeeuk: "playstation 3 is the ultimate in gaming acceleration"

LBP is too small of a game in Japan to have a detailed launch report.

but the movement of the game should be visible... i don't expect any line.. but i thought maybe general popularity will be visible by seeing the LBP on shelf..



so seems like we have to wait till tomorrow to get the idea of success of PS3 in japan...
but with the new commercial, Sony do look serious..



More observable request -- Any DSi lines? お願いします。

Edit: Nvm, DSi releases on Saturday.



Bet - "PES 2009 (PS3) will sell (closer to) 150k first week in Japan" - Pooperscopper
"It will sell closer to 125k" - Me I agree.
ME = OWNED :(

End of '09 Predictions:

Wii: 78 million
X360: 35 million
PS3: 27 million
