I assume .999~ Joy points = 1 Joy point, correct (This way I can save .001 Joy points to the Joy point!)?

LOL, I like how the Anti-Sony news piece is the only affordable transaction :)

maybe now the sony fanboys can stop telling you your biased when in reality you already know :P lol

that will make the threads much easier to read in the future.

Great post. I actually look forward to how your going to put a spin on the sales figures. Very clever. The jabs at EA was also good. Anyone think the 360 will break 10,000 a week from now til xmas? I think it may.

I do like the way the sales arrows resemble a particularly challenging DDR sequence.

Hey, PSP finally sold better than PS2 again. It's been a while since it was outselling its older, bigger brother (or sister... or whatever the relationship is in the PlayStation family... second cousin thrice removed?).

And the gap between 3rd (PS2) and 4th (GBA SP) is about 20k units. Amazes me the gap is so big... I can't believe there are still people in Japan who don't have PS2 yet...

And, once again, Kietzmann comes up with another funny way to present mundane information. Way to go.

BPM, it's because many people in Japan don't have a PS2, because they do. It's more likely due to the fact that the slimline PS2 is infamous for breaking easily. I know people who have gone through 3 PS2 slimline consoles, and they take care of them.

I don't know when these Japanese hardware sales posts started to get all crazy, but they're hilarious and I thank you. :-)

Almost 6.5 million DS units sold for the first 10 months of 2006. Anyone want to guess what the handheld's total sales will be for the entire year?

Meanwhile in Sony land, it's good to see that PSP topped PS2. Whenever a 6 year old system beats out a new handheld, somethings not right. And what of the Xbox 360? Blue Dragon's impact = minimal? We'll see...

Hah, I love the 360 but I have to laugh at these jabs at it. They are soooo well deserved! The 360 is breaking all over the place, MS and their mess of a marketplace and the points system, etc.. and now after seeing that slick web browser the PS3 is going to have, Sony have my attention! MS are just hanging onto their US customers by a thread, they are finished before they started in Japan. I'm sure the Japanese are laughing their ass off at the MS dashboard update that cooked many a machine (mine included). American programming hah!

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the Xbox 360 will never break 10,000 a week in Japan. And that includes the week of the Blue Dragon bundle's release.

We'll see if I'm wrong pretty soon.

Really? I hadn't heard about the PS2 model 2 breaking so easily, just the first model (My younger cousin has had three of the older models stop reading discs).

Funny, though, as I'm still on my first PS2 (the big one). Then again, I rarely use it... I've only been playing it a lot lately since I got SoulCalibur III (yay for Greatest Hits price!), and haven't played it for months since I was done with We ♥ Katamari...

If the percentages represent change shouldn't the drops have a negative percentage(-%)?
