Latest Japanese Hardware Sales


Recommended Posts

The PS3 continues its downwards trend quite rapidly, not even selling a third anymore of what the Wii sells :laugh:

The Psp seems to sharing the same fate now, selling only a third of what the DS Lite sells as well.

MS still needs to come up with a proper slogan and campaign for the X360 in Japan.

Exposing the fact that Xbox360 - 2,910 might nullify your theory. The Playstation 3 is definitely not selling as well as the Wii (hell, the Wii is pure dominance at it's finest against any console)... but let's not forget the 360's numbers over there shall we? Do honestly think just a mere slogan would do the trick? :p

Do the Japanese eat DS's for breakfast?!

+1 :laugh:

I'm surprised to see the 360 go up to nearly 4,000. I expected the PS3 sales to drop some (as well as the 360), but the PS2 seems to be selling very well for an 8-year-old console. I just wish I invested in Nintendo about a year or so ago on the Nikkei exchange.

Well, the DSL did drop under 100,000, I don't remember the last time I saw it under that. The Wii fell a bit also, under 60,000 but still going strong. The PS3 is still in it's stedy decline, though that gundam game did help it a bit, once that faded it right back to the 16,000s. 360 seems to be getting a little boost, maybe from all the news of games like DMC4, AC4 and so on not being PS3 exclusive anymore. I think when you just wanna play these games and don't care about the name of the system you play them on, then price is the only factor. With the 360 being cheaper a small but stedy % of buyers pick it up over the expensive PS3.

Weird, the only 3 gaming devices that got a raise where the PSP, PS3 and more shockingly the Game Boy Micro. The rest went down.

What the hell happened this week?

Umm.. The Xbox 360 went up.

    • I hear you on browser password manager, in my case I have two Google profiles, one was created when Google decided to grandfather us out of Workspace for Domains (with the replacement being too expensive for 25 users) resulting in my domain email address no longer being able to be registered to a new Workspace I created (for myself and another co-owner) so I could use Takeout and sync over some stuff to the new Workspace. Then I have my personal Google profile which I could be logged into on my desktop or Mobile, so I am saving passwords on one or the other, and when an URL changes another password for the same service gets added, it basically ends up being a giant mess. Unless I missed something is there a local decent password manager that can override the browser password managers for Chrome, Edge, Firefox (profiles) so that there is only one vault, and does that also support Passkeys (which to me are still confusing because sometimes it will ask for a Passkey on a phone I am no longer using!) Microsofts implementation of Passkeys is the worst!
    • It's utterly baffling that we have no idea when we'll get new features even well after they've been released. Why Microsoft thinks this is a good rollout strategy is beyond me.
    • If it makes anybody happy, others will need to be bitter about it. (apologies to Yogi Berra)
    • I owned a lot of Soundblaster cards over the years all the way back to the ISA slot era. I use a Soundblaster X3 external now because I'm able to run it through a KVM and have it follow the machine I happen to be using. It drives a set of JBL 305 powered monitors wonderfully. I'm not gaming or doing home theater through it, so rear channels aren't a consideration for me, though it does have side / rear / sub outputs.
    • I disagree that using browser based password managers is a bad idea, your passwords are encrypted by the OS password, but they also be synchronized to make them helpful. I would also use a password manager extension that supports MFA TOTP and Passkeys to manage the account that synchronizes the data. Ente is 100% free and allows you to vault important information, has password vault support, and supports 2FA TOTP support, I just don’t believe, it has a browser extension.
