Xbox 360 All But Decomposed In Japan

Weekly Xbox 360 sales show the system is continuing to decompose in Japan. Forget dead or dying the system is on the verge of disappearing all together.  The Playstation platforms outsell it by a ratio of 24 to 1

  1. omg, we all know Japan has no interest in the Xbox. Interesting to see Wii sales aren’t on your chart. Bet that would change the picture.

    Also, loving the MS Paint graph work.

  2. Why are the Nintendo DS and Wii sales not in that chart? They are on the source…

    Lets see, it would look something like this:

    DS **************************************************
    WII *********************
    PSP ************
    PS3 **********
    PS2 ********
    X360 *

  3. You know Sony loyalists are really grasping at straws when all they have to talk about are sales figures in Japan (when they live in America). As hlj commented above, when talking Japan sales figures it would be nice to show some Nintendo systems, but then that would kill your “story” completely. Nintendo is crushing Sony in Japan and Nintendo and Microsoft are abusing Sony in the States. I know, I know, wait till 08, the PS3 is “an invesment that will pay off in time”, etc, etc. I so hope MS tears it up in 08 as well, so we can hear all you Sony tools say some corny ass shit like wait till 09 or bring up your conspiracy theories. Admit you guys were lied to from day one and Sony raped you without a rubber, lube, or a thank you at the end of the day. Your all like a bunch of abused house wives that stay and continue to get abused. At this point you deserve what Sony is doing to all of you.

  4. There is no way this site is for real.

  5. Obviously this chart was edited or changed in someway to make Sony look better because there are no Nintendo sales figures. Cant this site for once just post actual facts/data without the unecessary fanboy spin? We know the 360 sales suck in Japan, just like the regular xbox sales sucked in Japan. What a surprise. The console known for FPS is not doing well in Japan which loves only RPG’s. Why dont you post the charts about how the 360 has been outselling the PS3 in North American and Europe for the past 6 months or so….. If you want to defend your weak ass PS3, then start by providing unbiased information and leave the media spin to Sony. They have lots of practice with that.

  6. no shit everyone knows the japanese are racist against americans because of WW2 and 360 is and American console so they steryotype it.

    EVER THINK OF THAT SONY FANBOYS?

  7. It’s also very funny how if you compare the sales of the 360 in just American and compare it to sales figures of the PS3 everywhere in the world combined–the 360 stills wins…by a lot.

  8. I really doubt that microsoft cares what happens in japan. Japan doesnt really make a difference. Hell, the japanese gave mobile suit gundam: crossfire a good review and over here it is considered one of the worst games out.

  9. Now I’m not trying to defend Sony or this humorus site, but things you guys DO need to consider for REAL arguments…

    The 360 has been out a year longer than the PS3. While weekly sales (worldwide) have the PS3 in last place, it is close behind the 360. The 360 has sold about 10.5 million units, while the PS3 has sold just under 5.0 million. Half as much in about half the time.

    Meanwhile, the Wii has sold over 10.6 million in less than a year, and sales have been restricted by retailer’s stockpiling the system, making it hard to buy.

    You can’t compare the PS3 to the 360 and say it’s doing bad. It’s still early in its cycle. Using that logic, the Wii makes the 360 look bad as well.

  10. P.S.

    CPO, the Japanese are not racist. They love us and even during WW2, they modeled everything they did after us. The ships, planes, even uniforms. They don’t hate us.

  11. there is only one thing John Q Customer cares about, price. Cost to make a BD player is high that HD-DVD, so therefore HD-DVD is cheaper, so therefore HD-DVD will outsell BD

  12. sorry, wrong topic

  13. I really have trouble seeing the 2:1 ratio, all the gamers I know have 360s, there are two non-gamers that have ps3s and thats all I know. Which is sad really seeing as how both of them got them to play sports games that run better on the 360.

    Don’t forget the Wii. Or the sales anywhere else in the world…>_>…

  15. Let’s take a look at the ACTUAL figures,

    DS Lite: 94,339 6,091 (6.06%)
    - Wii: 39,371 6,912 (14.93%)
    - PSP: 22,196 3,893 (14.92%)
    - PS3: 18,068 1,675 (10.22%)
    - PS2: 14,280 859 (5.67%)
    - Xbox 360: 1,635 409 (20.01%)
    - Game Boy Micro: 263 160 (37.83%)
    - GBA SP: 195 32 (19.63%)
    - Gamecube: 73 43 (37.07%)
    - GBA: 16 49 (75.38%)

    And you want us to believe that Japan loves Sony? Fucktards.

  16. Man, that’s hilarious. The incompetence of this site is so spectacular, I’m starting to seriously wonder if it’s not actually a viral site actually started by MS or Nintendo.

    Before you post more hate-mail, think. Do you wish this site was burned? Do you wish it to be maimed? Do you wish it taken off the tubes? If so you should e-mail microsoft and say thier viral campaign was more effective then Jesus but its getting old…

    now, lets see the American sales charts…

    oh wait, you don’t post anything that isn’t negative about the Xbox360.

    It’s pathetic that you claim to be a “Sony Defense Force” when all you really do is bash 360.

    Well, I guess you must not have anything else to do…since you’ve got shit for games on that doorstop you call PS3.

    You guys should try posting a SINGLE post that isn’t biased, a lie, are just completely irrelevant. I find it funny how you talk about Xbox360 users, When
    you yourselves are just a bunch of lying scumbags.

  19. I agree. Enough hate-mail. The whole site is meant as a joke, but you guys act as if the SDF struck a nerve? Did they hit a little too close to home? Do you really have that little faith in your beloved 360? No? Then relax. Do you really consider the SDF or even the PS3 a threat? Then enough with the verbal attacks. Laugh a little.

  20. We do laugh! We just like to voice our opinions. Consider it practice for the off chance that a REAL site like this turns up :P

  21. Thankyou, SDF! You have opened my eyes to the hatred inherent in the Xbots and shown me their defeat! Huzzah!

  22. Looks like another big big loss for the M$ fanboys! I hope you Xbox3-shitty owners enjoy your last-gen rumble controllers and shelling out another $199 for an HD movie player that sux!!!!!!

    Also, anyone want to take me on for some Lair multiplayer?

  23. @ xeacons

    I dont think this is a joke, I think m0dus et. al. are really that stupid

  24. and no, I dont have much faith in humanity

  25. Yeah, there are liars and damn liars. And these SDF fanboys can take any statistic and twist them in a feeble attempt to not look embarassed by the whole charade.

    XBOX has NEVER sold well in Japan, where is the news in that? Meanwhile, even Sony is not numero uno in their own home region. That distinction belongs to Nintendo.

    Now if you care to look at any other part of the world since Japan only accounts for about 120 million people out of, oh, about 4.6 billion people total, you’d see that Sony is in last place everywhere BUT Japan.

    And I didn’t have to distort any statistics to make that point either.

    This.is.Sadness.

  26. lok at dat! all $ony lies! PS3 iz still in lazt plase!

    LOLpwnd

    *phew* man this is hard. Hopefully one day i’ll get to the level where i can do it all day like the xbots.

  27. Since when do Xbox owners care about how well the system sells in Japan. The only reason Microsoft doesn’t give up is because there is money to be made their and sooner or later Microsoft and the Xbox name will be accepted in the land of Godzilla.

  28. “It’s pathetic that you claim to be a ‘Sony Defense Force’ when all you really do is bash 360.”

    There’s not much to defend on the PS3…they’re being blown out of the water by their two competitors systems, so all they can do is grasp at straws. For instance, this article is focused on how they’re not the worst system in the 3rd largest gaming community in the world.

    Dude! The PSP sold 22k? That’s sweet, good for them. Umm…22k what? Pounds? Grams? Fish? 22 k’nex? Oh dude, K’nex were the shiz!!

    Seriously, I love this website. And I don’t think it was started by a rival company OR by sony. Just a guy with a lot of time on his hands and a great grasp of what is funny. Satire, boys, is the ultimate.

  30. The loss of japanese console sales has obviously spelled certain doom for the Xbox 360.

  31. I find it rather funny how all over the net everyones declaring Nintendo the Leader in this generation of consoles now that they finally beat Microsoft by what a measly 100k. Funny thing how this numbers became available a little over a week before the launch of Halo freakin 3.

  32. BD pwns RROD lol!
