japan really doesn't care about hardcore gaming anymore. at least, on the consoles.

Not a 360 fanboy, just a PS3 fanboy hater that likes putting them in their place ^.^

Disappointing? Having into consideration the current Japan situation I would say that those sales are amazing.

Surprisingly high for RE5.

Edit: or maybe not, depends on how front-loaded it is.

It says 231k for Biohazard on Playstation 3 if we take into consideration the bundles (so 9k bundles were sold on the first day).

Looks like PS3 will have another huge week in Japan.

End of '09 predictions :

Playstation 3 : 36M
Xbox 360 : 38M
Wii : 71M

A mildly impressive debut for RE5 considering japans economy. Should keep PS3 and 360 hardware sales up. Possible boost for 360!

FootballFan - "GT has never been bigger than Halo. Now do a comparison between the two attach ratios and watch GT get stomped by Halo. Reach will sell 5 million more than GT5. Quote me on it."
