Japanese hardware/software sales for last week... WTF? (part 2)
Tron Knotts \| 7:00 PM on 11.14.2007	6 comments

Japan is all fucked up, and I love it. Last week the 360 out sold the PS3 due to the release Ace Combat 6. To me that makes absolutely no sense, yet it is awesome.

This week, it's a game called "Musou" is pushing the PS3 ahead of the Wii and the PSP.

What the fuck is "Musou", you ask? I'll do some Mattlocking to be sure, but I think it's Dynasty Warriors. Sterling must be creaming and crapping in his pants simultaneously right now.

I hope next week a Musou/Final Fantasy/Metal Gear/Ace Combat crossover is released for the Dreamcast so that system can sell 100,000 units.

Anyway, here is the unconfirmed loose estimates of how stuff sold in Japan last week.

DSL 82000
PS3 56000
PSP 55000
Wii 35000
PS2 9400
360 7000

1.Mario Party DS　242000
2.Musou PS3　176000
3.Super Mario Galaxy　78000 (335000）
4.Musou360　27000
5.Final Fantasy Tactics A2　24000 （235000）
6.Castlevania PSP　20000
7.Wii Sports　18000 （2091000）
8.西村サス　16000（112000）
9.Wii Play　15000 （1648000）
10.Mario Kart DS　13000 （2528000）

Its probably Shin Sengoku Musou, which is the new dynasty warriors.

Wow, I thought Mario Galaxy would do a little better.

Tron Knotts

Yeah, I think the Japanese are just sick of the home console scene in general.

Mario Party DS sells buckets, but the best Mario game in years, maybe of all time? Not so much.

Wow Mario Kart Ds is still up there? Those japanese sure love their Mario Kart.
