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.

    • Surprise! We still can't get it right. With the current state of AI, the crappy software, the huge mega-corporations that back all of these idiot things, I think we are a very long way away from SAE Level 5. I, for one, will never get in one.
    • Nice. September/October GA?! I'll keep following it, but won't install any preview or beta versions.
    • Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.
    • Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
