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.

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones by Paul Hill Waymo, the self-driving car maker owned by Alphabet – the parent company of Google –, has recalled some of its fifth-generation Automated Driving Systems (ADS). It did so after some of its cars drove through closed construction zones. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the affected vehicles were capable of driving through a closed freeway construction zone and continuing to drive at speed. The listing on the NHTSA website says that Waymo is currently developing a solution to fix this issue, but in the meantime, freeway driving is being restricted. Waymo will update its ADS software so that vehicles can detect when they can avoid entering construction zones. According to the Safety Recall Report, on April 20, 2026, Waymo’s Field Safety Committee began meetings reviewing an event from April 11, 2026, and five events from April 19, 2026, where Waymo’s autonomous vehicles didn’t recognize and drove past ramp closure signs into the pre-planned freeway construction zones. This took place in Phoenix, Arizona. Separately, on May 18, 2026, seven Waymo vehicles entered freeway lanes with active construction in the San Francisco Bay Area by driving between cones that were placed to show the lane was closed. On the back of both of these events, Waymo restricted freeway driving until it could address the issue. In June, Waymo’s Safety Board reviewed the issue and additional information related to ADS performances around construction zones; then, as a result, it decided to conduct a recall. This development is not good for Waymo as it adds to a growing list of technical hiccups its cars have experienced. Ultimately, it will lead to more scrutiny from lawmakers around the world who will be more cautious about letting autonomous vehicles on their roads without tighter regulation. For readers in areas where Waymo operates, does this news make you more wary about stepping into one of these vehicles?
