Japan really loves their monster hunter games, dont they?

glad to see the PSV doing a bit better!

Next few updates should be interesting. Persona 4 for Vita was released and apparently it spurred Vita sales. Not as high as 3DS, unfortunately, but nonetheless, an increase.

Dude, that's dedication right there. Well done good sir.

The XBox is just not popular in Japan is it? :\

No, it's just that games where you run around and shoot people are not popular in Japan.

So that is the majority of the major xbox hits out.

You're right, Xbox needs more dating sims and generic jrpgs, though when it did have those it didn't help that much either. ToV, Star Ocean 4, etc etc. They had nice first week spikes but then sales dropped again like a brick. It's not games alone, though that's one part of it.

    • 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.
