MontanaHatchet says: LBP shot up like a rocket! Holiday buyers, or a bundle? I really don't know. Probably bundles considering the sales for GT5: Prologue. Great software for Wii, DS, and PS3. 360 doing decent as well. Posted on: 01/03/09, 23:54
FilaBrasileiro says: I failed to believe Yakuza Kenzan and HSG5 sold less than 151 units when they just got "The Best" treatment a couple of weeks ago.... Posted on: 01/04/09, 00:06
shakarak says: wow I figured tales of heart would of sold at least another 50k. I hope it makes it pass 300k in japan.
As for phantasy star zero also a dismal start in comparison to the psp version. Anyone know what the reviews were like on it? Posted on: 01/04/09, 00:39

animefobber says: ya good opening for WKC, I really didn't expect it to go past 200k on its first week. Now all we gotta wait for is the huge drop. Posted on: 01/04/09, 03:39
Diomedes1976 says: Good (if not awesome ) debut for WCK ....knowing that January is a BIG month for Japan sales it will get to 350K for sure and it may have a shot at 400-450K ...that would be great . Posted on: 01/04/09, 04:27
KBG29 says: Good week. I wounder how Sony is doing financially in Japan.
If they loose 100 per PS3, and gain 5 off of every game, and PS2/PSP then they should basically break even. I think they probably loose a little less per PS3, and make a bit more per game that the above, but I am not sure. In any case the Q3 results are going to be very interesting.

klaudkil says: Awesome sales from WCK wait till ff13 comes out omg...

EggsWithLegs says: DJM: It's no surprise WKC outsold every other X360 JRPG. The PS3 does have a big lead in Japan (approx 2m right now) and at the time of every X360 JRPG release, the number of consoles for the X360 would have been even less.
Anywayz, comeone on PSZ. I hope this achieves as much as PSP did. Posted on: 01/04/09, 13:25
It speaks volumes of how much Microsoft has achieved in Japan this generation when you Sony fanboys compares 360 game sales to PS3 game sales. Last generation there were zero comparisons to Xbox and PS2 game sales in Japan, but wow oh wow how the tides have turned. Posted on: 01/04/09, 17:30
And you are even bigger xbox fanboy for replaying on something like that. People are just using biggest Jrpg for comparing sales. Did you expected/wanted WKC to fail so now you little nervious and aggresive when it didn't? Ahh i see now. Posted on: 01/04/09, 18:28
