Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Xbox 360 Japan exclusives: Less than 1million sold combined

Lord N said:

Did the 360 sell more in Japan than the Xbox? Yeah? Does it matter? No?

After selling <500K last gen, MSFT really had nowhere to go except for up. 1.15 million in four years is pretty godawful no matter how you slice it.

The reason that it's not doing so well in Japan in hardware or software is because the system only really appeals to core and hardcore gamers, and as software will only sell well if it's an established franchise and/or of a tried and true genre.





PS3 still under 4 mill in Japan...What is your point?

And the PS3 appeals to who exactly in terms of games?

And your wrong....I herby proclaim certain Wii owners Sub-Casual...



 



Around the Network

Most of those games didnt sell because they were mediocre games (except ToV).. and no matter how exclusive a game is, if its not as good as the hype that precedes, it will FAIL...



Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.
