That would explain the " large" number of 360' s in Japan. I wonder how that game turned out?

True. I am sure they' ll probably increase with LO. The November surge was probably due to Ace Combat 6. Not that I care, as long as everyone gets to play what they want, is all cool.

Software sales uuh. Wii Fit outsold Mario Galaxy software sales for the first week. And I kinda expected it. (What I didnt expect though was that Mario Party 09 would outsell both games in first week sales)

Yet another thing that makes me lose faith in Japans gamers.

Mario Galaxy, a great mario game(though 64 still kicks its ass backwards and forwards IMO) is outsold by Mario Party 8, a badly reviewed, over done, rehashed concept of a decent game, and then outsold again by Wii Fit, a boring, repetetive, excuse for something that would only be exercise for a fat kid who can barely get out of bed.

Why are you surprised? It' s a far better handheld than DS, I' m surprised DS is selling so well.

Are the US/EU numbers really that different?
I thought the DS was the no.1 selling console EVERYWHERE
But anyway, the DS has got lots of cool games in Japan.

Also I am pretty sure that the PS2 is not outselling the 360 in the US/UK.

So in essence, small, cute little consoles, and rehashed versions of older succesful games are going to be the most popular in Japan?!?!

Who woulda thunk it!!

Don' t forget the incest.

I' m slowly coming to the conclusion that Japan doesn' t turn out better, quirkier games. They turn out weird stuff for the sake of being weird, whether good or not. This appeals to the Japanese market in the same way a shooter, good bad or otherwise, appeals at some level to the Western Market. (Somebody bought Hour of Victory).
