Infinite Undiscovery selling well in Japan

TVGB: "For those of you who don't know that the Xbox 360 is doing terribly in Japan, well, the Xbox 360 is doing terribly in Japan. To give you an idea of the scope of Microsoft's problem, a mere two Xbox games cracked Famitsu's Top 30 sales chart for the week of September 8th-14th, while a whopping seventeen made the list for the DS."

Doesn't matter. This article is comparing a small, affordable handheld with a multimedia home console. It's like comparing apples to... well, raisins. Shouldn't he be comparing a multimedia home console to, you know, ANOTHER multimedia home console?

The article fails. Game over.

@ toastedduck

You're the one that bubbles need to be taken from. Only because you disagree you want to get bubbles from someone else. Thats trying to get pure sensorship.

You don't belong here trying to put people up to other ones for nothing. You little dictator duck

I just GAVE bubbles to dcbronco. I hope everyone will do so and he hits 10 bubbles within no time

So true, bubbles! At it`s current rate of sales, the PS3 will have as many consoles sold (worldwide) as the 360 does in about a year or so. The 360 and the PS3 will be competing for years to come, we all win as gamers! woot!

on topic: grats MS for your decent success in Japan, no one would have guessed it, keeps Sony on their toes making sure the always continue pushing quality games like they have always been doing! Don`t want them to get lazy like Nintendo.

6 - Haven't played it yet

The reviews for the game haven't been glowing, so I passed on it in favor of Tales of Vesperia. I don't know for myself if Versperia is better or not, but I'm not upset about my decision because I love Vesperia!

But, either way, the more JRPGs the better. Keep it up Microsoft. If nothing else, you are least putting together a better all around game library compared to last gen.

MS it doing well in Japan at the moment and it will be interesting to see what happens over the next week or two.

Sales are going down week by week which is not uncommon with anything in Japan other than Wii and DS.

I have been using VG charts to rank the games so far I know it is not accurate but it gives a good guesstimate of how they are going. So far it is going better than Eternal Sonata but not as good as Blue Dragon.

In my personal opinion about the game. It has an interesting story and Star Ocean gameplay but I don't like the Unreal Engine's graphic style.

8 - Rented it, played it, sent it back 2 days later.

I will admit, its better then I thought it would be, but,, the game's story is mediocre at best,, and thats pushing it. Graphically its a pretty game, but its really short, and all the missions seem to have no meaning behind them. I think the only true reason that this game is selling is because it has "SquareEnix" on the box. I too am guilty for the same reasons,, but this definitely falls far from the squareenix feeling that I always got from every Square game I ever played. I was finally starting to have some fun till it prompted me to put in the second disk. I couldn't believe I didnt even play for 4 hours and I was more then half way through? I think the average time I spent on ps2 rpg's is like 50 + hours, and thats before I tried to do everything in the game. I hope that the following Square games don't fall to this trend.

its obvious the 360 is doing bad in japan but recently it has had some life to it but when you look at it the ps3 isnt doing all that well software/hardware either. During the first tour of the ps3 in japan it did well but all that has lvled off and its in 360 land. I also like how they compare the 360 to the ds. the ds is a monster "which is odd since theres no games" and the wii is a beast and well theres no games

what a failure the PS3 is, it got outsold by the 360 2 weeks in a row, IN JAPAN! How the mighty playstation brand has fallen. Never once did the original xbox outsell the PS2 in japan.

2.1 - Apparently he didn't get the memo from past games

Xbox360 always outsell PS3 from one of two things:

1. New JRPG release (seen in every other JRPGs this year)
2. Desperate price-drop

Apparently, Xbox360 had both for the last two weeks, make perfect sense to me to outsell the PS3 (but very disappointingly, by a mere margin)

I bet you are one of those retards who brag at winning by one point in life, so sad.

Anyway, give it a week or two, back to 3k units then the usual 1k - it's a cycle (perhaps a bit too complicated for you to understand)

i hope you enjoyed those 2 weeks smartass, because take a look at Sony's exclusive fall Japan line-up:

1) Dynasty Warriors: Empires
2) White Knight Story
3) Way of the Samurai 3
4) Yakuza 3

and unfortunately for you, MS can't possibly desperately cut the price of the 360 any more in Japan- or else they'll start losing money on hardware

3.3 - @Above, man, you are quite stupid - don't compare apples to oranges

MGS4 = Appeal to Westerners
IU = JRPGS = GOD AMONG MEN IN JAPAN, EVERYTIME a JRPG is released, it's holiday to them

Different expectations, different standards and for a "SQUAREENIX" JRPG, this is "horribly horrible" WAY below standard of standards (if you get my drift

actually duck, MGS is an action series that has always appealed to Japanese gamers due to it's immense depth and storytelling

that's not to say the game sold badly, it has like a 45% attach rate in Japan doesn't it? that's really good
