無理？
Vesperia had everything to do with this.
Yeah, all 15 of them.
When they only stock like 45 360's in all of Japan, is this really such a big deal?
The end is near.
Magesx HAHAHA
nanowerx, no one here said it was a big deal.
Of course Vesperia had everything to do with this. Japanese gamers want to re-experience their snes/ps1 days over and over and over and over again.
Blue Dragon, FFXII and Mario Galaxy was way too different for them for gods sake. Let alone games like Shenmue that bomb completely.
Not saying "westerners" don't have the same issue with some genres and (especially) sports games cough cough madden cough cough Fifa, but we also buy games like Braid, Psychonauts and Bioshock that are at least trying to take "games to the next cultural level." Even the Fps market has to constantly innovate and push the boundaries or it's a no sale in the west - see Haze vs Cod4.
Hey Microsoft, just give the Japanese their Snes games again and they'll eat it up. And let's not forget - "the sequel bias" works just as well both here and on the other side of the pacific.
Young fools... Only now, at the end, do you understand...
Those places sound freaking awesome! Just like everything that exists in Japan, we need some in the states.
hahaha who gives a shit
xbox is gay
sony owns sorry
"Xbox sells out in Japanese stores, devil claims coldest day yet".
@dodo
Dude, go back to ign.com.
Clearly this is because they couldn't wait to play as Favre on the Jets in Madden 09.
DESU DESU DESU DESU DESU DESU
WAIT WHAT?
@dodo
While I personally prefer the PS3 over the 360, Sony doesn't "own" anything. Get out of here.
Those crazy Japs.
JAP JAP JAP JAP JAP JAP JAP JAP JAP!
Retailers probably dont get much 360 stock there anyway, what with its relatively poor sales. I think they're just making space for the new SKU.
Yodabashi Camera? They're Hirohito's boys, aren't they?
The Tales series is great though, so it makes sense. I loved the demo too. Can't wait for it to be released. :D
Wow, if the 360 version sold so well, I can't wait to see how many units ToS2 shifts on the Wii.
Man all these stupid titles that only release on certain systems really piss me, as a consumer the hell of so screw ps3 wii and 360 as a group and individually
