the Xbox 360 is currently failing in the land of Japan. the PS3 has already sold Double the 360 consoles sold. this is not good seeing how the fact that the killer App Blue Dragon is already out. This means Japanese publishers will make there games for PS3 in Japan maybe they may see a port to the american 360 if your lucky lemmings, Looks like Japan really hated the first Xbox and don't wanna buy another one or maybe there waiting for Halo 3 rofl yeah right.

Japanese PS3 owners bought a lot of copies of Resistance. Maybe there IS interest in Halo 3 over there.

Is that really a surprise? Anyways, it doesn't really matter. Nintendo seems to own Japan this time around.

im pretty sure ms never planned a win in japan, its their biggest flaw. They will never win the "system wars" imo until they can figure out how to win the japanese market.

There are still alot of JRPGs for the 360 that look promising that have yet to come out like Lost Oddesey, Trusty Bell, Infinite Undiscovery and such. One game will never sell a system, but if good JRPGs like Blue Dragon keep coming out for the 360 its sales will improve dramatically, especially with a price drop. Plus all the capcom and team ninja support will help.

Life to date PS3 in first 5 months sold 870,000 units compared to 360's 130,000 units.   In 5 years the 360 will contine to sell even slower where as the PS3 will get good japanese esque games and that will give the PS3 a 10 million unit advantage which negates the 360's one year headstart.

For a shooter game on the Playstation format. The fact that it sold anything is 'a lot' to me. We're talking an FPS game on a Playstation here.

The thing is.....most japanese people hate american-products/imports. They don't hate all imports (I'm guessing they use windows...) but things like consoles, electronics, cars...etc they prefer their own.

I do like that microsoft is looking to try to get the attention of japan: with blue dragon, lost odyssey, infinite undiscovery, eternal sonata, and cry on.

Exacally. Japan make about 75% of the games and they basically choose what platform it's gonna be released. ofcourse the games gotta be succesfull in there region before anything and with under 300thousand units sold compared to the 600k the ps3 has already they will choose ps3 wich means here in america PS will have more games again like last gen and the gen beofre that remember they won? it's cause they had more games and like i Said Japan makes 75% of console games.

Yeah that may be true but there are no games really for them to buy yet but there prob waiting for the sequals to the RPGs are made. MS is trying to make Rpgs but there all new. The PS has Franchises of some of the Best RPG's ever and they wanna see those not new one who can be hit or miss. Who ever japan Supports the most will win the War end of story.The 360 is just flopping in Japan and i wouldn't be surprised if they pull it off shelves in the nest few years alil early.

ya know, the PS1 was losing to the sega saturn in japan for a pretty long time, look who won out of those two... I'm not saying the 360 or ps3 will win, i'm saying people who make assumptions about the future are idiots. whether they come up correct or not, theres still a good chance they'll be left with egg on their face.

if you add up the hundred of games never released here in america then yes they do. the games released here in america from Japan isn't as much as the games that never see release here. you must be very un educated about gaming if you don't know that just cause it says Resident evil doesn;t mean it's made here. Capcom is a Japanese company,konami,Square,Bandai, etc etc

there all japan companys. Dead Rising? made in japan Capcom is a Japense company. just cause the game looks so naturally american doesn;t mean it was made in america.

EA. Activision. Atari. Ubisoft. Blizzard. Vivendi. Take 2. THQ. MGS. Those are 9 of the biggest (including the biggest) producers/developers out there. I highly doubt Japan contributes 75% of all games when those 9 are all based outside of Japan.

Sadly i'm not a fanboy. This is my Honest opinion if you don't like it it's cause your not on the side of the fence of my argument. later when i post somthing good about your Consoles your be on my side i guess. but for now i'm wrong to you? Wait i'm stupid you guys are right Japan doesn't contribute to us it's not like they made gran tursimo, resident evil, Mario,Metal Gear,Final Fantasy, Sonic,Chrono trigger, nah not japan those highly successful franshises didn;t come from Japan there american duh(Sarcasm)

The funny thing about this thread is no one expected the 360 to do good in Japan, not even Microsoft. Even with Blue Dragon, Sakaguchi said they didn't expect more than 80k- 100k sales. and BD is now well over 200k. Progress is being made there but at a slow rate. The real news is the PS3 in Japan. Its selling, but not at the level it was anticipated, meanwhile the Wii is killing everything in its path.

Activsion brang over Tenchu remember that Ninja game? sorry to own you. THQ is also very involved in bringing Japence games over from japan. MGS? made buy Kojima? oh your right kojima is american.. No you obviously don;t know anything about games. EA also Pays for localizations sometimes.

I was going to ask you if you could read, but after "brang" I guess you answered the question before I could ask it. Konami is the publisher of the MGS series, you're the one who listed them as a japanese publisher. Not THQ or whatever you were talking about with "kojima being american". Nice try though.

You do not follow Japanese sales, I take it.  Here's a wake-up call: PS3 will be lucky to hit 2 million a year from now.  10 million is completely and utterly out of the question.

I bet you that when Halo 3 is released in Japan it makes it to the top 5!

And I'll bet you it'll be behind Brain Age; Wii Sports; Cooking Mama or some other assorted quirky Nintendo Wii/DS games.

MGS is Made in Japan bro. Now why would you even bring up those companys if they"Brang" the games over? my point is before they "brang" them over the devlopers"choose" what platform. so the most successful in there region is what they will "make" it for. got it? good.
peacebringer

Before you own yourself any further, here's a tip:  In the context of his post to you about game publishers, MGS does not equal Metal Gear Solid, a game franchise.  MGS = Microsoft Game Studios.  Definitely not Japanese.

In Japan, they care about one thing - the DS.

Blue Dragon has sold more consoles in Japan and more copies than any other game - thats commendable.

That said, Japanese developers will still be publishing titles for the Xbox 360. As the number one console sold worldwide, they would be foolish not too. Some big name games coming for the Xbox 360 are japanese titles, like Eternal Sonata, Cry On, Lost Odyssey and Devil May Cry 4.

PS3 isn't doing much better :lol:darkmario123

Well for a console that has been out for only 5 months and has doubled sales of the xbox 360 which was out a year longer, it looks worse for MS then sony and there arent even any big name titles out for the ps3 to sway the japanese consumers but look for that to change soon when big name titles come out.

And you would know so much abaout japanese developers MR Gun signature.Japan is the biggest contributer to games ever. Capcom,Konami,Square these 3 of the best developers out there from where? Japan. If PS3 has a 10 million to 2 million lead next year think those companys will make there game exclusives for the american only succesful Xbox? Mods please change this guys sig.

EA. Activision. Atari. Ubisoft. Blizzard. Vivendi. Take 2. THQ. MGS. Those are 9 of the biggest (including the biggest) producers/developers out there. I highly doubt Japan contributes 75% of all games when those 9 are all based outside of Japan.

Those companys you listed pay for japanese games to come to america but they don;t make them there publshing them example

Activsion brang over Tenchu remember that Ninja game? sorry to own you. THQ is also very involved in bringing Japence games over from japan. MGS? made buy Kojima? oh your right kojima is american.. No you obviously don;t know anything about games. EA also Pays for localizations sometimes.

I was going to ask you if you could read, but after "brang" I guess you answered the question before I could ask it. Konami is the publisher of the MGS series, you're the one who listed them as a japanese publisher. Not THQ or whatever you were talking about with "kojima being american". Nice try though.

MGS is Made in Japan bro. Now why would you even bring up those companys if they"Brang" the games over? my point is before they "brang" them over the devlopers"choose" what platform. so the most successful in there region is what they will "make" it for. got it? good.

First off, I never said MGS 4 was made anywhere. I know it was developed and published in Japan by japanese companies. And about companies making games for a platform so they will be more successful in their region, thats BS. No one makes a game specifically for a region. What region a game is sold in is completely up to the publisher and whether or not they feel the game will sell enough to cover transportation, production and any development costs that are connected to selling a game in a certain region. Its basic economics.

Well for a console that has been out for only 5 months and has doubled sales of the xbox 360 which was out a year longer, it looks worse for MS then sony and there arent even any big name titles out for the ps3 to sway the japanese consumers but look for that to change soon when big name titles come out.squallff8_fan

Wii won Japan already.

Before you own yourself any further, here's a tip: In the context of his post to you about game publishers, MGS does not equal Metal Gear Solid, a game franchise. MGS = Microsoft Game Studios. Definitely not Japanese.

Most people call Microsoft MS so i got confused. i was like WTF MGS isn't made in america. Ofcourse i am talking about home Console and not PC's cause american and europe makes the most games if you add PC devlopment. but Consoles thats Japans territory. and everyone saying oh 360 will still get Support. no it won't Japan doesn't know what americans like in games only american can do that. thats why Japan has to make the games in there region that there people like first. it's always been like that and no Console is breaking records for that to change. If 360 had 1 lead in Japan id say it's possible but they don't looks like it's gonna be our version of saturn but for them this time.(where in Japan Saturn was ultra Successfull but in america tanked. the PS3 will be Competitive everywhere but in Japan it'll have a huge lead over MS.

[QUOTE="TekkenMaster606"]Japanese PS3 owners bought a lot of copies of Resistance.Felous1
No, they didn't.

Correct. Though they did purchase quite a few Gears of War.

Yeah for the time being, but u dont think japan will buy MGS4 or Final Fantasy 13? This war has only just begin, but look for sony to finish this war with a bang.

Wii is something totally differant it's not gonna get the high calibur games simple cause it can't run them. The Wii will aslo be very Competitive for Developers so it opens the windows to go to other platforms. Wii although a great product is not in the same league as PS3 and Xbox. it's 249 and it's selling more that doesn't mean everyone is gonna drop the million dollar games there making on PS3 and 360 to make games for them. we learned last gen there was room for 3 consoles.

If Japanese developers don't know what Americans want, why have all the Capcom and Team Ninja games on the Xbox and 360 been so popular?
