..... 138,740 360's.....how pathetic!
352,457 not as pathetic but still.... why no love? MONEY!
What the heck are you going on about?
Seriously, I cant understand one thing you typed in...
How sad for you :(
I guess the Japanese are digging handheld (and Wii) consoles more than anything else.
Do you live on this website? Get outside dude.
ouch.
since who declared you the home owner and slap you the kicking shoe........It's sad u the only one that feels that way
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?
ISOHaven can just be on the same time we are...lik im just chillin at school, wit nothing to do...so i browse here, get off ISO's walnuts
