Latest Japanese Hardware Sales


Recommended Posts

So what? It still managed to make it to the top of the list. Don't try taking anything away from it, it's a pretty damn good achievement and you know it.

:rolleyes: and where I said that? I know Halo is big and do well everywhere.

:| Halo fans a little sensitive. :laugh:

To be honest, it was a slow software week all around, so it didn't take much to top the list. Still, not to bad for a 360 game in Japan, I think it's the 2nd or 3rd fastest selling 360 game there.

360 install base in Japan is 410,000 (plus today's numbers).

Not at all, but H3 has done very well in Japan to get to the top of the list and knock off FF from the top. Not going to get into a huge discussion over this, it's really not worth my time.

Alpha, it's a slow week because nobody wants to go up against H3 :rofl:

i personally dont think any stats like these are accurate

I think the difference is that in America Wal-Mart doesn't report their sales and they sell a lot. So that skews the totals by a large amount. In Japan (if I'm not mistaken) all stores report their sales.

There isn't any hot new DS game to help push new sales I figure. And it's all about games really. Just wait for Nintendo to make yet another pokemon game and then we'll see where DS sales go.

I thought it'd be pretty obvious that it wouldn't be in the Top 10 this week. Although I at least expected it to be in the Top 30. Looks like it would have sold just a few thousand copies this week then.

Hardware October 1 - 7

DSL - 87,445

PSP - 86,895

Wii - 20,704

PS3 - 10,822

PS2 - 10,446

Xbox360 - 1,547

GBASP - 195

GC - 109

DS - 90

GBM - 47

GBA - 0

Extremely close this week between the two handhelds.

PS3 finally outselling PS2? (Not by much)

I always thought the PS2 was still doing better in Japan.

Still, the numbers are nothing to be happy out. Combined sales of 108,163 for Sony though.

    • All versions is correct. The bug appears on any version of Windows with KB5094126 installed. It's a little insane to expect the author to explain that systems that can't possibly have that patch installed, will not experience the bug. If you have any gripe about the title, it would be that it doesn't mention the update at all, but I wouldn't agree with that either. A title is not expected to be a full summery of the article.

    • I'd say the first one failed to be as popular as Apple anticipated, but the easy adjustment here is to make fewer of them next time around. It would only be a "flop" if it isn't possible for Apple to recover the design and factory tooling costs given the number of units sold, which I doubt would be the case. It isn't like no one bought them; it just failed to become the new hot phone of the year.
