360 outsells PS3...... in Japan!

http://kotaku.com/5037173/

Although I don't really mind or care for sales, this is pretty impressive.

Also in other news Siren gets a 7.0 here on GS.

Pretty impressive on the 360's part.

Off-topic: I'm suprised Siren got a 7.0 here :(

And what were the actual numbers?Chutebox

Nintendo DS - 60,434

PSP - 58,501

Wii - 38,506

Xbox 360 - 24,962

PlayStation 3 - 9,673

PlayStation 2- 8,503

And what were the actual numbers?Chutebox

24,000 compared to 9900 (approx numbers) so it was a hammering.

Japan is not a major region for any consoleFFXIII360

PS2 got over 22m sales in Japan, so that is way ahead of every country except the US (UK is 3rd at a bit under 10m).

For one whole week impressive indeed. :roll: In other news PS3 once again outsold 360 in the USA for July's NPD.-Renegade

The world has gone crazy, 360 in front in Japan and PS3 in front in US.

Aren't there a couple of JRPGs coming out for Ps3 in Japan really soon?

Not sure, I'm only ontop of the US release dates for these RPGs but I wouldn't doubt the PS3 probably has a few big hitters in Japan for the next few months.

Yes, little more than what 360 outsold Ps3 by in Japan.

[QUOTE="-Renegade"]For one whole week impressive indeed. :roll: In other news PS3 once again outsold 360 in the USA for July's NPD.MojondeVACA

The 360 didn't outsell the PS3 by 20k.

[QUOTE="-Renegade"]For one whole week impressive indeed. :roll: In other news PS3 once again outsold 360 in the USA for July's NPD.MojondeVACA

I bet 360 won't even manage that for the month of August in Japan...

How do you figure? Since it already has sold over 30,000 in August so far (i think you mean September). Even in September i am expecting around 40,000 for the month (the PS3 should be around the same).

funny you say that since thats how much 360 passed in Japan for 1 week:roll:

It will go back to its place next month I mean week, Tales was just released it sold a few systems.... :P Very few.

For the U.S and European Race has me interested, is the Ps3 still winning even with the 360 Price drop and FF going multi :o

Well the numbers are not that great for the 360 really, it sure as hell didn't get a Blue Dragon-esque bump in sales. I am more curious about seeing how it sells in the next 3 months with Vesperia, Infinite Undiscovery in Sep and The Last Remnant in Nov. The low sales could be because there were not enough systems available or it could be that the sales increase wasn't all that good. Time will tell.

The sales of the game (Vesperia) itself are far more impressive though. It goes to show how pathetic the wii is for 3rd party games when a system with 6 million install base can't even move 200,000 copies of the Symphonia sequel yet a system with a barely 600,000 install base sells close to 110,000 its first week. Good luck with putting all future Tales games on the wii Namco :roll:

Was it on a Sega? Oh, wait.:lol:

Fun or not, they're important, and indicative of a companies appeal to third parties.

I bet 360 won't even manage that for the month of August in Japan...

5 times 20,000 = 100,000

50 times 20,000 = 1,000,000

300 times 20,000=6,000,000

so as you can see at only 20k above a month it will take the ps3 about 300 months to match the 360's install base

Yup, so all the consoles need to do is sell the exact amount of consoles each month for the rest of their life spans. Simple enough no?

And what about Europe?? You completely missed out Europe...

Anyways, good news for the Xbox 360.

You forgot EU and JPN. And it was the fact that despite the price drop, PS3 outsold 360.

You really have no clue do you? The PS2 is still 16,800yen in Japan and it was MORE expensive in Japan than the US for its entire life!! The whole world doesn't like playing those pathetic US FPS games ya know, Japan certainly is a major region and always will be. If it wasn't for Japan, you wouldn't have a games industry in the first place!

A bit off topic here, but hows Tales of Vesperia? :P

Oh, oh, and I totally agree.;)

Meh. And Ps3 outsells 360 when MGS 4 release's.

T'was only expected.

No, I thnk you missed the point. Japan is PS's home. Its where they should have their most popular following. But they don't. This proves one thing : Japan is not PS's home. More like Wii's.

lol what does FF has to do with boosting 360 sales at the moment. Im sure the game is gonna get released in 2009

Nintendo_Man

It's great, I am really enjoying it. I am about 12 hours in so far and it is one of my favourite Tales games ever and I own all the (Jp) PS1 and PS2 games. For me it is right up there with Phantasia on the PS1 and Destiny remake and Destiny 2 on the PS2. It is also the easiest Tales game by far,but I don't mind that. It just makes the game more of a pleasure to play.

I am sad Siren got shot down at GS I guess it's not "Hardcore" Like RE4 was.Jynxzor

Gamespot likes their survival horror games without the horror or the survival.
