Forums - Sales - Hardware sales for Japan

First of all, excuse me if it was already posted or explained.

I find odd that tere is quite a difference between vg chartz numbers and media create numbers.

VG CHARTZ has :

- WII at 8.46 millions

- PS3 at 3.33

- 360 at 1.13

And Media create has :

- Wii at 8.38

- PS3 at 3.57

- 360 at 1.10

Ok so the difference with the 360 is really small, but for the ps3, vg chartz is undertracking it by 240 k according to MC ! (And overtracking Wii by 80 k but i suppose it is acceptable on a basis of 8 millions +)

So, any explinations please ?

I think Ms should give up in Japan and make a handheld there.

Why don't you find Famitsu and Dengeki numbers a look and see how different they are too.



I haven't access to famitsu numbers, why don't you post them



actually if you want to know numbers that are very accurate compare famitsu and vgchartz numbers and i believe they are fairly accurate so basically MC is undertracking wii by 80K and overtracking PS3 by 240k...

And why famitsu is the most accurate ? So nobody wants to post famitsu numbers...

The original Xbox only sold like 500k in Japan. So the 360 has had... double the success!

It'll probably sell like 2.5 million in all.



Where did you get those MC numbers from? I checked the Neogaf Media Create thread and they had a lower LTD for PS3.



On jeuxvideo.com there is a news about the japanese sales, according media create.

Here they have PS3 LTD as of August 10 at 3.27 million, so actually a little lower than VGchartz.
