The Japanese economy is almost terminal. It is virtually bankrupt as a nation.

Earnings recession predicted for this year... now that would be very very bad.

Next week PS3 numbers will be interesting in Japan.

FF7ACC boost

Killzone 2 boost

Only if they both were release at a separate week to increase more sales than what they going to have

FFXIII bundle is this week while Killzone 2 is April 23rd I believe. Seperate weeks.

Killzone 2 drops on Monster Hunter G week.

iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

The differential in sales between systems, which appears to be facing shrinking numbers, makes Japan not much of a difference maker. Will see what the Playstation 3 has set to come out next for it, to keep the momentum on, and by how much. Barring this, it is possible the Wii ends up back on top in Japan. The 360 has a boost, however.

@tbone

The home console sales here are awful... I dont think there is any glory to be had.

Wii UK = Wii + PS3 + 360 Japan

Yep, you should have titled the thread "Japan down"!
