I am really impressed that Xbox 360 is managing to still sell ok number of units in Japan, considering they don't have a lot of JRPGs and stuff Japanese care about. When such game comes out on 360 their both hardware and software sales go through the roof outmatching PS3 and all others like in Feb. Talk about killing PS3 and Wii with just one good game. I wonder what would happen if they had more games like that Star Ocean.

It's obvious though that Xbox 360 will never sell as good in Japan because of their tradition and loyalty. They will keep buying Japanese made products. To me it's even wonder that Microsoft manages to shift numbers on occasion there above everyone else. Not that it matters to me really, Japan never really reflected the rest of the world in sales or specific products. So many stuff they've used never really reflected on the global markets. They are very peculiar.

I have to agree here. Didn't the Xbox '1' only sold about 50 - 100 sales per week? Also Tales of Vesperia are the only RPG that I know of that helped the Xbox 360 sales over there. As long as MS keeps pumping out games that Japan likes like RPGs and shoot-em-ups like Death Smiles then the Xbox 360 sales will continue to sell a decent amount of 360s over there.

Finally, the 360 broke the 1million total sales mark for Japan. I think that's a huge win for MS.

Haha, wow, the DSi shot above the 100,000 mark!! That's insane!! I haven't seen that in a very long while. Also, a 2.3 million launch week is phenomenal.

New games sell systems, the new DQ made the DS jump big. 360 doesn't have anything new out at this time it seems so sales have dropped, though sales are down for other systems as well.

Not a surprise since DQ is the type of big name game that would help any system sell that it's on.

Strange how the PS3 sales have gone down even though there's a price drop. Must be for the Slim, then.
