Your reading comprehension is worth an F as well.

Nice PS3 sales, only 10k away from the Wii, thats saying alot.

Not really, the Wii is not doing hot in Japan anymore unlike EU and NA where the numbers are just crazy. But look at those Monster Hunter numbers, cut the price, release it as a new version = 380k sales. :O

When does SO4 release compared to SF4, Yakuza 3 and RE5? I don't think 360 will even beat the PS3 that week if those other games have anything to say about it. Yakuza is huge in Japan, going to wipe the floor with SO4 sales.

In which case can you confirm that that is a minus sign before the 55% for 360?

PS3 hanging on....it needs resident evil 5 to hit big

The percentages shown are compared to the week before, and have nothing to do with the numbers from this week.

This

I'm pretty sure PS3 will beat 360 the coming weeks, but don't underestimate Star Ocean. It's the first respected Square franchise to hit Japan and StreetFighter and RE will also be on 360. They definitely won't sell more than on PS3, but I'm sure it really helps the 360 to have those as well in combination with the exclusive Star Ocean.

The wii needs some big new games out and fast to help keep its japanese numbers up.

SO4 does indeed come from a fairly big franchise but The Yakuza 3 + SF4 + RE5 combination will be much stronger for the PS3 then the SO4 combination.
