IGN: Sony Sales in Japan

The Famitsu Marketing Data Service sent out its monthly report on videogame sales in Japan. It collected data from January 28th to February 24th. Although Nintendo is still performing extremely well, especially considering Super Smash Bros. Brawl's placement as the number one selling game (with over one million copies sold), Sony hardware and software sales are still notable.

Impressive numbers for the psp. With the ps3, the sale numbers will skyrocket after the debut of Yakuza 3. If elected president I will assure that the ps3 will continue to dominate over Hillary 360, I mean xbox 360, not only in Japan, but worldwide. Yes We Can!

1-800-4MY-XBOX for all your coffin needs.

sony is doing well in japan, but it still seems a little to low for the ps3, i hope with mgs4, yakuza, and others will make the ps3 skyrocket like the wii, the way it should be

The Killer5891d ago

maybe its not bad like 360 but still, its the far weakest market from the big 3(USA,EUROPE,JAPAN) ps3 sells 5 times more in USA than japan!!
but again its SCEJ fault they didnt listen to their people demand and left casual family friendly games for the wii to take!!
japanese people r a bit weird, they r not like the west or the rest of the world!! they like excitement like RPG provides or some jumping games maybe rabbits eating grass games! they like all weird sort of stuff(weird for us not them). well sony have this year to fix things in japan!!

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron - Coming Back for a New Generation

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.

Fallout 3's Reveal Led To Death Threats And Bethesda's First Security Guard

The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series

anast10h ago

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.
