VGChartz reports the preliminary Japanese software sales for this week:
"This week, no single Japanese title dominated the charts, although the entire market remains at elevated sales as the seasonal increases toward peak weeks continue. There were few big debuts this week, although Lost Odyssey was released for Xbox 360, while Tales of Innocence had a solid debut for DS. In the coming weeks, the big and somewhat releases will pick up with Gran Turismo, Nights, Chocobo's Dungeon and others by the end of the calendar year."
Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.
Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.
Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.
The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series
People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,
But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.
As much as Bethesda deserve criticism, that's not really relevant to the reveal of Fallout 3 in 2007.
The default angle Kotaku always go for is to highlight the worst in gaming.
I would’ve focused on the creative.
Pac-Pix launched in 2005 as a Nintendo DS exclusive, and deserves to make a comeback on modern touchscreen devices.
The PS3 might as well be a side project for Sony. Hate all you want on the PS3, but you have to give props to the PS2. 5 titles in the top 20 with the only other system having more being the DS. That's pretty solid for seven years.
No wonder Sony isn't worried about the PS3. If you ask me they probably make up a lot if not all of the losses on the PS3 with the PS2 and PSP.
japan is not anext gen market end off when ds /ps2 is selling a lot i dont consider japan a next gen market.
There have been ... what? 4 comments so far on this topic but its already at 120 degrees? How is that possible? anyway ...
hmm Wii fit is selling quite well and Lost oddysey seems to have an average 1st week sales in which 50 to 60k at least 10% of 360 owners in japan bought it. Lost oddysey is not quite I imagine to be a system seller in japan. A big dissapointment it will likely reach enternal sonata sale figures in japan. Lost oddysey will probably sell good here in the US and euro. GT 5 prologue will be out next week it will be very interesting to check if GT 5 prologue would sell a lot of units and move ps3 systems.
Face it, the Xbox360 sales are far from a flop and we are just waiting for m-create's final numbers!!!!!
For the Xbox360, that is really good for in Japan.
The attach ratio is much higher, 4.2 nowadays!!!
For a newcomer the Xbox360 has gotten further than basically anybody....and japanese are having lots of fun with it!!

See the many people enjoying themselves at Halo tournaments & so on, Xbox360 is picking up a cultural phenomenon in Japan....
Since this is a marathon, that won't translate to overnight success. But they already went past the original Xbox by miles, (which did flop) and are fully entering a new arena with the Xbox360!!
I am sure the software will sell very well indeed given the 360's amazingly high attach ratio.
