On a side note, this proves all the people who said that a 360 price cut in Japan would make no difference 100% wrong.

The price cut alone probably didn't make alot of difference. Tales however did. The last few weeks the xbox 360 was sold out but now a new shipment arrived according to MS. We'll see if next week the xbox 360 will still be on top of the charts. I bet you ten bucks it won't.

If (according to you) they beat the Wii in a week without any 360's available for sale, then don't be so quick to count them out next week when they have new shipments in.

@Huey2k2

The price cut did very little, if nothing. The software did, however. Content is king, hardware is replaceable scrap and unimportant in the eyes of the average consumer.

That is absolute BS, you can't tell me that if the 360 was the same price now as it was at launch that they would have sold as many as they did last week.

Lol..."at it again"?

Umm no...at it again is me calling you sony fanboys the typical stuff I call you guys. Saying "insert curse word" sony.

And then going on and on about how horrible sony is.

That is "at it again"

For now I'll just simply congratulate MS and Nintendo and enjoy sony's loss.

That's all. Sorry if you were looking for more.

P.S. Judging by your posts you're the one who's at it again. You want to start a fight.

I just don't get it, WHY do you want Sony to fail? Do you NOT realize that competition is a GOOD thing for the gamers? Competition breeds innovation, originality, quality, affordability. Without competition, look what MS has done in the past. Competition with Sony keeps MS AND Sony trying harder and harder to woo undecided gamers.

I don't like MS, but I DON'T want them to fail. With the 360 doing well it has forced Sony into doing more for us. Now that the PS3 is doing well too, MS is NOW forced to do more for us.

You are a fool and your hed is stuck so far up the ass of irrationality.

You seem like a somewhat intelligent person, but for whatever reason(s) you have a bigger hard on for anything anti-Sony that NO OTHER fanboy past or present has evar had.

I know I am a PS3 fanboy, no-one here will dispute that. Usually when I poke fun at the 360 I still say that COMPETITION is a GOOD thing for Sony and MS.

As for the Plumber? As many of you know I do NOT consider the WSM competition, I never have and never will so I DO want the WSM fad to die so that Nintendo can get serious again and give us REAL NEW hardware and not some repackaged bullchit with a gimmick that STILL does not do what it says it does.

What is really ironic is the Wiimotion plus attachment, the Sixaxis controller already HAS what the WM+ claims to do. The DS3 CAN detect very subtle movements in SIX different axis. The WSM controller cannot.

If your going to continue to be a jackass...at least interject some NEW material once in a while and sprinkle in some humor.

If not....then Fuck Ouffff, yeah

FAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUCCCCKKKKKKK

OOOOFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!

How did you see that judging by my posts?

And if my eyes tell me properly, you DID say "insert curse word here" Sony.

Moreover, what does Sony 'failing' do for you? Does it increase your checking account balance? Does it net you more pussy than it would have if Sony had succeeded? Does it secure you a seat in Heaven if that's what you so desire?

Lastly, why is YOUR profile private? Afraid of something? No need to make it public, though. Everybody knows your M.O.

And yea...you're at it again.

alter ego- youre back defending ps3 for no reason. we are all gamers just typing comments... why do u feel the need to back up sony so much? do u work for sony corp.? or hold stock?

for some reason alter ego has to say something about any comment that says anything good about the ps3.

i havent seen many posts by alter ego that actually talk about the subject of the forum discussion.

infinite undiscovery is a japan made RPG game for the 360, of course it will help japan 360 sales.

but wow ps3 sold 72% fewer consoles according to the figures.
and we know the 360 is PROBABLY killing the ps3 in America on sales figures.

console gap lead is opening further and not closing now.
maybe sony is banking on LBP and resistance 2 to help sales of the console itself.

proponal- umm the price cut has helped with consoles sales and has hurt ps3 sales slightly.

Further proves that they're willing to buy if you pitch software to them

And that's really what motivates them in the end. In times of no major software, there is a hierarchy, but whoever has the biggest game gets the gold usually in Japan.

If microsoft comes out with a new JRPG every week (52 JRPGS a year), they would win in Japan. Hey 52 jrpgs a year aint that far-fetched. We already know japanese gamers like to buy crappy games like technu z or whatever its called and gundamn. So im sure 52 games wouldnt be totaly out of the question. They dont need to be good.

Ahhh, and who is making all these JRPGs? Hey, maybe they can make quick-n-dirty ports from Genesis, SNES, Saturn, PS1, Dreamcast, and PS2 to reach that quota.

Well its not that the 360 did that great... it sold the same when Tales came out but the big thing is that the Wii took a big drop.

plus does anyone think the 360 wont be back to normal sub 5000 sales after next week?

I do believe the Wii sold around the same amount it sold last year around this week period:

Sales for week ending in September 15, 2007:

Wii - 28,231
Xbox 360 - 1,516

So based on those stats, I think it's safe to say that the 360 did GREAT this past week!

Well... better Microsoft than Sony. At least Microsoft deserved it, because the 360 is a great gaming machine.

The two best consoles on top... nice.

Well, the Wii is a console, not a peanut or sailboat so that word applies. And also, it's the best selling system so I'd say those words work just fine.
