Japanese Hardware Sales: Nintendo stuff and PSP up |
Ó
Compared to the previous week, most Nintendo Hardware saw an increase in sales for the week ending April 22. The only other system to see an increase in sales is Sony's handheld, the PSP. The number of PSP units sold this week is even higher than the PS3s and the PS2s combined. Ogle the Media Create sales numbers yourself:
- DSL: 172,359 (+39,034)
- Wii: 77,913 (+2,154)
- PSP: 29,459 (+4,609)
- PS2: 11,398 (-1,474)
- PS3: 11,000 (-948)
- Xbox360: 2,307 (-593)
- GBASP: 860 (+206)
- GBM: 449 (-168)
- GC: 266 (+99)
- DS: 81 (-65)
- GBA: 55 (+29)
What's good to see is that the PSP is getting some much needed love. We see Final Fantasy I 20th Anniversary Edition near the top of the Media Create Software charts (at number 5 actually). Perhaps that had something to do with it?
Finally, this week marks one of the biggest selling weeks for the DS lite since it sold past the 200,000 mark sometime last February, but you all know that everyone and their dog owns a DS lite in Japan, so that's like saying that the sky's blue.
Please note that these numbers are slightly different from the ones released by VGChartz. These of are obviously from Media Create while the ones Gino D reported on, are from the site he sourced. Different as the numbers may be, the trends they displayed are quite similar. Ninty stuff are on the rise and so is the PSP while the PS3, the Xbox 360, and the PS2 aren't doing so well.

YES!!!
Other interesting facts are that PS3 were almost 5 times (4.7x) the sales of Xbox360. PS2 is still doing better than PS3 (probably due price and the ability to modchip/SM the PS2). Wii sales were 3 times PS2+PS3+Xbox360 combined. DSL sales were almost 6 times PSP, even when PSP is much better option than NDS (of course, if you use then OE firmware).
Now the PsP is selling more than the DS....lollll
you know why ??? i think everybody in japan as a DS and got bored ^^
Dizzy, what the ***** are you talking about? The DS sold 170,000 units you retard. The PSP sold 30,000.
The DS is OWNING the PSP in Japan.
OH MY F*CUKING GOD THE SKY IS BLUE!!!!!!!!!!! !!!
Alright I'm getting sick of this, it's nice to know what's up in Japan every once in a while, but every week? Come on.
Post some American numbers along with the Jap and Aussie numbers and I'll be happy
