You must be joking

more than 300k in one day (and those numbers do not include the PS3's bundle)

and who are the stupid people that agree to such false statements

Biggest first day sales for any Xbox 360 game thus far. Very good news for Microsoft. I also heard there have been about 10k ToV 360 bundles sold + additional hardware sales could put 360 past PS3 this week in Japan. Also, the game has a good chance of reaching 100k first week and it may even outsell Blue Dragon's LTD sales of 210k!

Great , glad to see that the jrpgs are selling on the Xbox in Japan.

I just hope they sell equally good here in the states maybe this way the Xbox 360 will continue to get good quality stream of Jrpgs.

5.1 - Yeah well u can count the US will have poor sales for this title...
As much as this game looks real good, I find it hard to believe it will sell well here in the US, since seeing that Lost Odyssey didnt do so well and that was supposingly one of the most anticipated jrpg's for the 360. Its sad to see 360 owners let great games like this pass by and see them buy games like army of two. I really hope this game sells well and more 360 owners open there eyes and buy these games, because if they aint then they truelly are missing out on good quality games.

5.2 - what do you mean lost odyssey didn't do well?
for a new i.p, in a genre not particularly popular in US outside FF games, Lost odyssey did VERY well. it sold 700k+, and did decently in europe.

because it didn't reach number #1 doesn't count it as selling bad.

b/c by that concept, Uncharted is in the same light then.

5.3 - @v1c1ous
how so? considering uncharted sold twice as much with almost half of the install base

or do you mean the game reaching #1 spot in sales?

yea I really enjoyed LO. I think LO and all the other xbox 360 rpgs will do better soon after ps3 owners migrate and own a xbox because of its rpgs. I know alot of ps3 owners are hurting for rpgs and dont want to wait any longer.

Only because you have to wait to play it on PS3. Continue to wait, what else can you do?

Well, I have no choice but to wait, it doesn't come out in Europe until 2009.

I do have a 360, but I can't play it on there anyway.

At least if it was on PS3, I could just import it.

Good to see the 360 getting some attention in Japan, the console sales have been increasing steadily too. Maybe all is not lost.

8 - 360 gonna outsell ps3 this week in Japan!
haha well done ms a small victory before it sinks again. But the question is where will the sales level out. Recently the 360 has been around 5-6000 a week instead of 1-2000. Not far behind the ps3 at 10,000 a week. HD console sales in Japan tho are pretty pathetic.
