Another week of hardware sales in Japan, another week of dismal PlayStation 3 news. While we're not opposed to admitting mistakes, seeing an expensive console like the PS3 have a dip in sales isn't entirely surprising, especially in Japan where the idea of having a large, HDTV in a small living space is pretty... well... it'll take some convincing. We're setting you up for disaster, here. Without further ado, here are the numbers you love to hate:- DS Lite: 133,325
- Wii: 75,759
- PSP: 24,850
- PS2: 12,872
- PS3: 11,948
- Xbox 360: 2,900
- GBA SP: 654
- Game Boy Micro: 617
- Gamecube: 167
- DS Phat: 146
- GBA: 26
Every Sony product experienced a significant dip into the red, that is, every Sony product decreased in sales in Japan. Sure, this goes against what was reported in the NPD report for March, but this is April. And there aren't any games for the Japanese market to get excited for. Something's gotta give. Something!
