Japan loves these things - Image 1It's no secret that Japan still loves Sony, and recent hardware sales prove testament to that. Even so, Nintendo's consoles are yet to slow down as the Wii and DS dominate the market. Microsoft's Xbox 360 continues to struggle with limited interest for its games outside the RPGs.


Recent figures from Media Create show that PlayStation 3 sales went up 20%, having sold 11,914 last week. The PlayStation 2 before it is still alive with units sold at 16,316 after experiencing a 26% increase.

Ninty's Wii doesn't fall behind, selling 8000 more than the week before last and keeping its steady lead at 73,919. Microsoft had 3154 Xbox 360 units sold for them, which is pretty much how the box performs over the land of the rising sun all the time.

On the handhelds side, DS recently sold 157,435 from 164,000 a couple of weeks back. Nintendo's other babies, Game Boy Advance and Game Boy Micro are still kicking, selling 179 and 377 respectively. The PSP trails as 38,305 units made their way off the shelves.

It's so embarrasing for sony that the wii sells almost 7 times as much as ps3s... Anyways here in Puerto Rico Wii and PS3 sales are very weak that their selves are small, but 360 sales here are so strong that their sehlve is already as big as the ps2 one!

Its so embarrassing that we have to endure the fanboy crap from you. Why don't you join Mister common sense and shatterdome and leave this site.
We are tired of your BS.

The pink ps2 looks pretty cool.I guess its to attract women gamers. We need more of them honestly.

LOL puerto rico.. plz remind us where the hell that is... 360 is sucking ass in Japan. PS3 sales are not glorious but getting getting better. Once there are better games out and a pricecut, it will pick up the pace. Not to mention the inevitable victory for Blu-ray.

If you are the same stealth I have replied to a few times, you are the biggest fanboy on this site, so don't be calling anyone else a fanboy, and you are the only one who should leave to save yourself more embarrassment.

the reasons y xbox 360 has sold more than the ps3 are
1. it come out a year earlier
2. 34% of them break down so people have to go and buy a new one (34% of them really do reak down lol)
