man, If Microsoft keeps this up, Sony better just hang it up and go into the software only business

Great for Ms, keep on trying.

Woah at this rate,if ps 3 stops selling in Japan,the 360 will probably get close to it in 10 years

Impresive. Nintendo is doomed confirmed!

this crappy punchjump article make me laught too lol

I think we can all congratulate Microsoft for significantly improving its performance in Japan. But seriously articles like this don't really achieve that. If anything they make 360 in Japan a laughing stock when they try to make a big deal about this sort of sales lift. Especially when it is doing worse than this time last year: during the whole of October 360 never went below 6K in 2008. This October it spent most of its time around 3K.

360 will have the occasional spike when it sells more than PS3 and Wii in a single week. But any hope that 360 will stay in touch with PS3 is now gone. It is a bit sad that people are still trying to talk it up this way. Accept that 360 has achieved a personal best but has still fallen a long way short of creating a substantial market and pray that it can do even better with the nextbox.

This is a really good number for the 360 in Japan. They sure made inroads this generation.

i think its probably due to forza and a price cut.

The second part refers toin Japan right? If u meant worldwide i think it would be best to retract that statement, especially in light of what happened last year.

Most of you decided to bash X360 instead of recognizing it had an increase. This article didn't COMPARE X360 to another console, so that's not the point of this thread/article. It's highlighting Microsoft's jump in weekly sales. Get over it.
