Latest Japanese Hardware Sales


Recommended Posts

With the Yen so high vs the dollar MS should just cut the price of the 360 in Japan. The difference in the currency should make up for any hit are margins I'd expect.

Isn't it already priced less than an equally equipped PS3?

Close race for Nintendo/Sony this year

Wii's sorta out of games, that's why you see Nintendo going back to it's old IPs and milking them, no good 3rd party support yet again it seems.

Also with 1.4m, though it doesn't sound like a lot, the 360 does have enough in Japan that 3rd party devs take notice. Thus more japanese games are going multiplatform now. I think MS should do a price drop there, knock off $50 in Japan at least, they make it all back plus more on the exchange rate with the insane level of the Yen right now.

If you go back to the original Xbox the 360 is selling very well compared to the first one in Japan. At this rate, the 3rd gen Xbox should sell quite well actually, though IMO MS should buy a few good name jap devs though that could be pretty hard since they don't like to sell to anyone non-japanese.

    • Subscription upon subscription... That old Xzibit Pimp my ride meme comes to mind
    • EA reached out to our reporter that mainly does gaming content and reviewed loads of other games, why would this be shocking to anyone? I admit maybe we were considered this time around because of the extra coverage UFC was getting and they wanted a broader audience for this release? IDK. I can tell you that we aren't paid to do the reviews, the fun part of it is (mostly) being able to keep what we review and giving an honest opinion on what we're reviewing.
