1. Call of Duty: Black Ops debuts at #1 in Japan
2. Rank 11-30

First-person shooters are quite popular in the West, and the Call of Duty franchise makes millions out of it. Call of Duty: Black Ops set a new record in the UK and is now the biggest entertainment launch in history. That's for the West, what about Japan? Well wouldn't you know it, the difference in gaming preferences didn't stop the sales monster from coming out on top. Now how many did they sell?

 

Combining the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game, Call of Duty: Black Ops sold 159,000 copies in Japan during its first week. It's nowhere near the 5.6 million it sold in the West at day one, but still enough to top all the other games.

01. Call of Duty: Black Ops (PS3) - 129,000 / NEW

I wouldn't call it Black Ops fever, it's more of a virus or should i say viral(advertisi ng) that a small percentage of Japanese gamers caught, but all will be back to normal next week.

Fevers are caused by viruses.

Really? I occasionally catch American news and i thought fevers, viruses and everything else bad in the world was caused by terrorism.

my my, iam pretty sure u call urself a hardcore gamer owning only a Wii. And if u got a PS3, you'll probably be on top of the list of whiners not getting cod map packs for example.

Grow up and be a man, gaming is for everyone

I'd hardly call them "poor" fools; the 360 has always just been the PS3's cheap whore of a little sibling.

:sigh:
You R right....but more likely next gen consoles in general ruined PC gaming & I'm sure it will get even worse for PC gaming in the future too. But maybe PCs might just end up as an MMO gaming platform in the end???Wot do ya think!
