It must be nice living in your little box. When there is this thing called reality going on all around you.
The Japanese 360 owners wanted Oblivion so bad that they actually signed an online petition to have it localized. Do you ever think before you speak?
----------------------------- ----------------
Kotaku
Japan Wants Oblivion... In Japanese!
Whenever Japan gets some exclusive title, the rest of the world sits around waiting patiently for an English localization. Sometimes, we get it, sometimes, we don't. Japanese 360 owners can totally relate. An unlocalized NTSC-J version of the smash hit RPG The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion has gone on sale in Japan. A petition has been created (with over 250 entries), begging game maker Bethesda for a Japanese language localization. C'mon Bethesda, make this happen and throw these players a bone. There's nothing worse than not being able to play through something because of a language barrier. Brian Ashcraft

2.4 - This will be the first time I'm ever going to troll
But 250 person petition isn't a huge game. I'm sorry. DMC4 got up to like 10,000 if I recall

oblivion localized on 360 was a mistake. There aren't enough systems out there the other system has more systems out there that can run the game.

Is that Golf Demo still on the Japanese PSN store? I could never find it. Of course I might have been looking right at it and not known but I dont think so.

To put it to perspective the Wii out numbers PS3 3 to 1 in Japan with 3.18m vs 1.03m. Hot Shots Golf wins here.

Yeah we need to take into account the console install base to better consider whether sales were a success. I wouldn't say any one of the games "won" but i do like mikeslemonade mentioning the install base.
Personally my style doesn't like mario party games but i can't deny its a game that attracts ppl and is fun to alot of them. Great news all around whoot!
