Wii - PS3 - Xbox 360 - Image 1


Enterbrain of Japan has finished tallying their results for the total hardware and software sales for the period of March 31 to September 28. This time period marks the first half of 2008's fiscal year in Japan.

Cue list of hardware sales!
  1. PSP: 1,583,731 units
  2. DS: 1,314,919 units
  3. Wii: 1,105,174 units
  4. PS3: 352,457 units
  5. 360: 138,740 units
Oh yes, the PSP reigns king of the hill. Over one and a half million units in six months' time? Man, that's deep. And to think these are numbers from Japan alone!

Meanwhile, on the software side of things, it's a different story. Nintendo dominates the charts with games for the Wii and DS, with Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G managing to grind its way to second place though.
  1. Mario Kart Wii - 1,744,387
  2. Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G - 1,602,386
  3. Pokemon Platinum - 1,481,725
  4. Dragon Quest V - 1,152,229
  5. Wii Fit - 845,238

I guess the Japanese are digging handheld (and Wii) consoles more than anything else.

360s do not sell well in Japan. Nor did the original XBOX.

Yet somehow iso dumbass giggles like a little schoolgirl when he learns the Wii sells well in Japan.

Seriously, get over it.

Let me know if the Wii gets some decent games.

I'm sorry, I'm new to this "fanboy mentality". But the Wii has got decent games, infact, up until GTA IV it had the highest rated game this gen...

But I guess fanboys don't see it like that. I see...

Mister Common Sense, AKA Douche Bag is just an idiot. Pay no attention to him. All he does is scope out the Wii news and spread lies.

As for wilmheath, if you ALWAYS see me on this site then you are also ALWAYS on this site. So WTF was your point? I'm on this site during mid day. Not in the morning, not at night and not on the weekends. So I ask again, WTF was your point?
