Let's see how it does compared to the spinoff, Kenzan.

Most hardcore ps2 franchises seem to be performing better on the ps3 thus far. DMC4 destroyed DMC3's sales, and MGS4 is tacking above MGS3. The more casual titles like Dynasty Warriors aren't doing so well, though. Of course, Yakuza isn't casual by any means.

the 360 never had any chance in japan. until it secures something like RE5 or FF13 as an exclusive, it's absolutely impossible. those little star oceans, last remnants, infinite undiscoveries, eternal sonatas, and tales of vesperias are like little .32 caliber pistols in the war for japan. 360 cannot really make a foothold there without a nuclear warhead of an exclusive.

Not RE5. The RE series is dying in Japan. RE1-3 sold 1.5+ million in Japan each, while RE4 barely sold 700k between the GC and ps2 versions combined. RE5 is even more of a shooter than RE4, and it should do even worse in Japan.

Well but it's a decision of Capcom to lose sales in Japan but get lot more in West countries.

Still why the hell they can't release such lovely packs and alternate colors in EU and US ?
