QUOTE The Nintendo DS is still lording it over the Japanese gaming market, nabbing more than 70 percent of games hardware sales in April. During the same period, the Xbox 360 couldn't even break the 1 percent barrier.
Media Create said that 138,000 Nintendo DS units and 690,000 DS Lites were sold in April. That's about 12 percent and 60 percent of hardware sales in Japan, respectively. The PSP seems to be flagging with 130,000 sold, but that's compared to 10,700 units for the Xbox 360, which is proving less popular than even the Game Boy Micro. Imagine the Yanks having the same consumer mentality as the Japs .. Habislah PS3  |

It's not about hardware, it's about games. The XBOX360 just doesn't have anything that can interest the Japs (or me, for that matter) currently. Until then, the situation won't change. And by the time there's some Japanese games out for the XBOX360, maybe it's too little too late...They need to get some quality JRPG to the japanese market by end of this year to counter the PS3 or it's all lost for the 360 there.
btw, what's the difference between a DS lite and normal DS?? Might pick up one myself as well...hee-hee.

Are you kidding me? DOA:Xtreme Volleyball 2 is enough to make me break the bank and get me a Xbox360. |

Japs practicing "dasar tutup pintu" Anyway I agree with matrix, x360 games dont appeal to the japs, probably just like how their jap rpg might not appeal to americans/europeans or whatever games the jap likes so much... personally, for me I prefere FPS more, so might have gotten the x360 if i ever get a next gen console. |

One thing I dont like about x360 is that they are still using DVD instead of the new HD-DVD, making it little bit no future proof.
