There pretty much are the same as Famitsu's numbers that were released a couple of hours ago.  They will probably be minorly updated when media create releases its data to find a happy median between the two.

LINK

DS = 150k

Wii = 80k

PS3 = 20k

PSP = 40k

The numbers have been averaging out for the last few weeks. PS3 is sitting comfortably at a steady 20k consoles a week, which is about 80k to 100k consoles a month. Sony doesn't need Japan or NA anyway.

OMG 360 sales are up 17% and Armored Core 4 was number 22 in game sales. Japan loves you 360, even if most people there just don't know it yet.

This validates what I've been saying all along: Famitsu's "most wanted" does not translate well into hardware sales. What spot did Gundam Musou occupy, #5? Sure, you'll see a temporary sales jump for each big title that's out, but that's all. And now look at the PS3 dipping below the 20,000 mark.

That list could be wrong. Why is the 360 version of Armored Core 4 listed but no PS3 ? Don't tell me that the 360 version actually outsold the PS3 version in Japan...

Forget the consoles, I think it is obvious that DS is unquestionable ruler over in Japan.

Beyond that - good to see that PS2 is still having respectable numbers (in my mind, it deserves it).

It's interesting to see how japanese react to new hardware.

Ever since PS3 launched PS2 numbers have gone down quite a bit.

I suppose people are going "oh i won't get a ps2 that's old, i'll just upgrade to ps3"

Then when they get to the store they realize that PS3 is too much for them to pay, so they go home with nothing, and just wait for PS3 to have price drop.
