Japan Moves 86,708 Units of Infinite Undiscovery in its First Week

Xbox 360 sales were more than likely spurred by the one-two punch of a Japanese price cut and the release of console-exclusive Infinite Undiscovery, which sold 86,708 units in its first week. MCV points out that the 360 has now sold 717,275 units in Japan -- the very foundations of our world would be shaken if it actually went on to sell a million units.

Wow 717,000 already and it only took them about 4yrs too:D 360 is on its way to victory in Japan. 360 shall outsell all console ever made combined in Japan alone. Infinite Undiscovery 87,000 units in its 1st week...WOW thats almost as much as blue dragon:D

"Wow 717,000 already and it only took them about 4yrs too"

What's with the sudden rush of hate and Bullsh!t?

Has it been 4yrs or are you just so just to fudging numbers that you couldn't help yourself.

Silogon6113d ago

Kingme, while it hasn't been 4 it has been 3. Not much better, wanna break those 700,000 down by the year? hahahahaaa. This is a non issue, xbox 360 is going back to the bargin bins and porn theaters next wee or shortly after.

sonarus6113d ago

lol i'm obviously exaggerating :D great news for microsoft. They shall win this console generation and leave nintendo and sony in their dust tomorrow. By tomorrow expect 360 sales to increase 10fold

the troll should shut up. we should take his bubbles away for being a troll

Fanboys don't get mad, but I think MS might have a trick up their sleeve! MS has been trying to get alot of RPG's on the 360 in japan mainly to boost sales. This may also be part of their plan to try to get SE to release FFXIII on the 360 in japan as well!

The way it looks, Xbox 360 units go up every time a Jrpg is released. The majority of these games aren't well known, but are selling thousands and are moving a few consoles as well!

If console sales reach 1 million by the end of the year, MS may approach SE with a corny line like..."If you build it... they will come!" and tell SE that people will buy it for 360 because the console is cheaper.

This is just something that could possibly happen. No need to get pissed off. MS is sneaky and I wouldn't put it past them to try something like this.

heyheyhey6113d ago

shoot them, SHOOT THE PIGS!!!!

Aclay6113d ago

The spur of Xbox 360 console sales in Japan were only driven by the release of Infinite Undiscovery, not the price drops because the 360 has already been cheap over there.

pwnsause6113d ago

so its going to drop next week, just like every other big game that released was on it.

bomboclaat_gamer6113d ago

"the very foundations of our world would be shaken if it actually went on to sell a million units"

At the pace it's at now it should do that by the end of this year/early next year.

sonarus6113d ago

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. It should sell 10million by the end of next yr:D

deeznuts6113d ago

Save for two weeks out of the year, they sell at 3K a week or so. How's that on pace for 300k by the end of the year again?

GameOn6113d ago

notice he said "At the pace it's at now"

heyheyhey6113d ago

@GameOn

problem is- it's fairly obvious that it won't keep up this pace

ToV proved that

Tri-Ace still uses their old game engine from 2008

The gaming community lately makes jokes about companies making games that look like "PS3" or "PS2" games. While this is such a nasty dig, there may be some truth to this in the case of tri-Ace.

Sad really. I used to love these guys but man...they just aren't what they used to be.

phallusitator744d ago

According to the this they are exactly what they used to be…

Noskypeno744d ago

The Cod games have been using an engine built in the mid 90s. Nothing wrong with using an old engine if they update it. Bioshock used UE2 and looked better than most UE3 games. Arkham knight used UE3 and looked better than most UE4 games.

Chriswynnetbh744d ago

I would give my left nut for an infinite undiscovery pc port

shinoff2183744d ago

Sh it does suck but I enjoyed star ocean 6 the most out of any game last year. I thought it was solid af start to finish. My favorite game that year.

I'd love for Sony to get ahold of them.

shinoff2183744d ago

To late to edit but I just wanted to add not every game that comes out needs to push a consoles boundaries. Star ocean 6 looked fairly good to me.

shammgod744d ago

Yeah. They definitely squeezed every drop out of that engine for SO6. It was a fun game

nitus10744d ago (Edited 744d ago )

I assume you are talking about "Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness" which I do have and am still playing. IMHO it is a good game but for some reason I still prefer "Star Ocean: The Last Hope" that I played on my PS3.

As a side note I have "Star Ocean: Till the End of Time" (PS2 version) which I played on my first gen PS3 but unfortunatly the Australian version of the PS3 did not have full backwards capability like the US version did. I got so far in the game and hit a bug (advancement to a new area between two mountains) that prevented further play.

As long as they continue adding more BC once the Scarlett comes out.

I can see most of these coming to gamepass sometime this year. Even some of them could make it GWG.
