Latest Japanese Hardware Sales


Recommended Posts

xbox360 doesnt need to sell better then the wii or PS3 as long as it sells better then the xbox. if that happens that will be great. console are selling like crazy this gen. i think this will keep up for a long time. do you guys think that last planet will help it sales. but it x mass time so xbox360 should sell alot more.

It's good to see that they are finally realizing that they need to develop games for a market in order to get sales. The good thing is that most games that would be good for the Japanese market (RPGs) would be readily accepted in the Western market, Microsoft just might have a thing going here.

Yeap its a start. They need to keep the odd RPG coming out every so often though. One game won't win over Japan in the long run :yes:

Blue Dragon is gone from the Top 30 after just 4 days. Zelda is also no where to be seen.

Wtf, where'd Zelda and Blue Dragon gone? I thought the Japanese practically worshipped these two games.

Nintendo and Microsoft must be pretty disappointed about this. Well, Microsoft moreso then Nintendo, seen as Nintendo dominates the top 10 charts 9:1

  • Wii has now sold more consoles than the original Xbox
  • DSL has now sold more units than the original DS

@ dnast: Not only in Japan. The DS is dominating everywhere.

Hmmm the PS3 have sold around 310,000 in Japan and looks like there is no talledega nights in newer versions in NA, so that's more than 400,000 in NA. If Sony can ship more (looks like they are not having problems with that now) I think its possible that they can sell 1,000,000 this year. Of all the crap that Sony talk maybe this one will be true hehe.

Bloody hell, even more DS Lite Units sold then last week. This is probably Nintendo's most profitable year since the early nineties >>

I think your right, after this gen is over nintendo is going to have a lot of cash on hand to invest in their next console(s)

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes by Taras Buria Recently, Forza Horizon 6 players discovered an interesting glitch that allowed farming a crazy amount of in-game credits in a few minutes. Playground Games quickly pulled the plug on the exploit by disabling one of the game's online modes, and today, the studio is rolling out another hotfix. In my review, I complained about the game still showering gamers with cars, credits, and wheelspins. As such, earning money in Forza Horizon 6 is not a particularly difficult task. You simply have to play the game, crazy, I know. However, people still found an easier path to becoming a billionaire in Forza Horizon 6. All you had to do was purchase the Hummer EV, install a specific tune, shift in reverse while going at about 15 MPH, hit a wall, and get launched into the stratosphere at the speed of light. While mid-air, launch Eliminator and quickly get eliminated. Boom, the game just awarded you with a few million in-game credits. Initially, Playground Games disabled Eliminator to prevent people from farming credits. Now, following the release of the first balancing update, developers are rolling out a new update that re-enables Eliminator and gives users a free McLaren Sabre as a gesture of goodwill. Here is the changelog: One critical issue remains unpatched, though. There are quite a few reports of the game wiping gamers' saves, and developers are still looking into that. To avoid potential data loss, Playground Games recommends taking one of the steps outlined in a previously published support article.
    • Dead by Daylight, Two Point Museum, and more join Xbox Free Play Days for the weekend by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There is a brand-new Free Play Days offer available to Xbox players, giving them a chance to try out a new selection of games over the weekend. Microsoft's latest promotion brings some high-profile titles, including the sports title PGA TOUR 2K25 and the racing sim Assetto Corsa. Almost all the games being offered this time require an Xbox Game Pass subscription, with only one title being available for all players. Starting with the fully free-to-play section, Dead by Daylight is populating it solo. This asymmetric survival horror title should be the most familiar to most gamers, considering its age. The multiplayer four-versus-one asymmetric survival horror game has you assuming the roles of survivors or the killer to see who can come out on top. This Dead by Daylight offer will be available to play until Monday, June 22, giving you an extra day of play compared to the remainder of the Free Play Days titles. Meanwhile, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and Essential members can now try out the well-received tycoon game Two Point Museum, the circuit racing sim Assetto Corsa, as well as 2K's golf sim experience that gives players a career to develop alongside real-world pros and courses. Here are the announced games and the platforms they are available to play on: PGA TOUR 2K25 (Xbox Series X|S) Two Point Museum (Xbox Series X|S) Assetto Corsa (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) Dead by Daylight (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) To easily find the titles on Xbox consoles, first head to the Store, and then in the sidebar, find the Home section. In there, open the Subscriptions tab. All the games from the Free Play Days collection will show up in this section for quick access. Apart from Dead by Daylight's offer, this week's Free Play Days promotions will end on Sunday, June 21, at 11:59 pm PT.
