The console royal rumble gets underway in Japan. While the PS3 came out throwing punches (which were later resold on Yahoo! Auctions), the Xbox 360 didn't even quite make it into the ring. Here's the embarrassing sales figures during PS3 launch week.
PLAYSTATION 3: 81,639 units
Xbox 360: 3,864 units
Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II was an intriguing and unique RTS title, that sadly suffered in its console port.
Was just thinking about this game and wishing I had a way to revisit it. The way EA scrubs these titles from existence once their licensing runs out is horrid.
Toyohashi, Japan is set to host a large-scale Monster Hunter event to celebrate the franchise's 20th anniversary, complete with themed hotel accommodations.
Clive actor Ben Starr plays kiss, marry, kill with Final Fantasy characters, and decides to off Cid from Final Fantasy 12.
Ew VO actors and their cringe core. Fiverr voice actors could out perform this chump.
We all know Japanese people only buy their own stuff. To quote B.G: Sony could better produce bricks and they would still 80.000 units in Japan.
Haha this is funny. Yeah Japanese would even buy a bag of poo from Sony for 600 dollars.
Japanese are nuts. Like totally. They also like sexual games abusing little teenage girls. Japanese like to see on tv people really hurting themselves hard. Like really hard. Like so hard nobody elsewhere in the world laughs anymore but is looking shocked to the footage.
The MSX-2+ sold a long time well in Japan, although dead in the rest of the world.
The PS3 get's beating in the rest of the world. First off they can't deliver. Second, it lacks content big time. Third of, the competition has better and more exclusives. The competition has the better copies of a multiformat game (COD3, Tony Hawk, RR6/7 you name them)
Actual sales show that the 360 sold almost 7,5 mln, the PS3 sold just 270k and the Wii sold 600k.
Now with Gears of War in place for this christmas, together with Viva Piniata for the parents that shop for their childeren, 360's produced enough to be on the shelve, no PS3 to be seen due to shortages... Millions of customers searching for a next gen present...
What you'd expect? Right. Forget the strange Japanese stuff. That market is declining any way. 360 is all around in new upcoming markets like Korea and India. Where PS3 only launched in USA and Japan.
It will be kicked under the butt so hard this gen
