[size=+2]Japan stops ignoring the PS3, sales jump 900%[/size]

Quote

Looks like all is right with the world again, according to the latest numbers from Media Create. This week on Sony\'s home turf, the PS3 moved 39,587 units -- outselling the combined figures of the Wii and Xbox 360. Also worth noting is that PS3 sales jumped a whopping 907% from last week, when the PS3 sold only 3,931 units.

As we reported yesterday, Grand Theft Auto IV for the PS3 took first place on the Japanese charts -- now we know it has sold 132,676 copies, while LittleBigPlanet and Gran Turismo 5 Prologue: Spec III sold 51,705 and 34,965 copies, respectively. You\'ll notice that Media Create has released slightly different numbers -- for example, the 360 version of GTA IV is in eighth place now instead of fourth place. Hardware sales are below, software sales are after the jump:

Don't waste your words I don't need anything from you. I don't care where you've  been or what you plan to do. I am the resurrection and I am the light. I  couldn't ever bring myself to hate you as I'd like.

I\'m surprised GTA has such an audience in Japan. Pretty telling with the anticipated games list, though.
 
Meanwhile, Nintendo has nothing on the chart, really. It\'ll be sad to see them squander such a huge lead by not producing quality titles. Wii needs good third party support, which isn\'t usually the case for a Nintendo console.
 
And the 360 is awesome. Japan really missed out on that one. What do you think the main reason was? Games or that Microsoft is American?

XBox360 is without a doubt a very good console, a lot of games, great jRPGs appealing to the Jap market till now and a very competitive price; but MS sold only 0.78M units there, in 3 years; reason ? Microsoft is american.
Fact is, big jap titles for XBox haven\'t the impact they should have; MS did their best to compete in Japan, and they had a lot of "free space" to move, with PS3 so expensive with lack of games appealing to jap market; now the situation is changing, more japanes games are coming to PS3(dicember will see WKC by Level5) and most of the Most Wanted Console Games in Japan all along 2009 are coming to PS3; the price will be more competitive and MS will be in huge trouble.   Again, XBox360 does not deserve it.

Who is this anamoly we call Jumpman? How is he able to do what he does and still survive after years of torment? It seems he feeds on the hate, growing with an intense passion to put unassuming members in their place.

Part of me really hopes bizio has stock in Sony, because otherwise this is kind of pathetic.
Wrong. There are two other people who can.

cannot answer your question;  pathetic is you wasting your time here doing nothing, posting nothing of nothing, apart from off-topic.  ps: do you think this forum is a lost case ? do you think PS3 fans in a PS3 forum are not interested in PS3 news ?

Now back on Topic.

I still can\'t believe why Wii sell so much with so little to offer. It\'s high priced for low value hardware. Software is lacking even more then PS3. Every single damn person I know (including me) that has a Wii usually play for 2 weeks then let it dust untill something new come out.

p.s.: keep it up Biz. I wish the discussion would be something else the free-bashing on you.
