Big in Japan Mar. 16-22: Super Robot Taisen K props up DS

Good to see PSP is still selling well. Wow, PS3 sells nearly five times as much as the 360.

While I do agree sales do not a good console make, fanboys do not an arguement make. There are some real gems in the trudge, if you're willing to search them out. Hating the Wii will not make it go away, especially when there are some "hardcore" gamers that tried the more pleasing titles and enjoyed them. In particular, when we see a certain exclusive FPS released soon, there may be a bit of Wii envy. Back to topic, these figures are all well and good, but I'm a little lost on what this means to US consumers in the long run. Of all these titles, the few I forsee seeing action stateside is the Mario and Luigi RPG (which will more than likely have a subtitle attached), the PSP Dynasty Warriors game, and the Monster Hunter title. They're all proven franchises here in the states, and will see decent-to-very good sales. The other 7 may not fare as well...we'll see though, I've been wrong before.

This is all nice but I bet that ps2 would tap number one for a long time if there was an Super Robot Taisen English release. Ah come on, please translate it, I'll buy three copies I swear!

glad to see that ps3 is selling well. sad to see yakuza 3 isn't on the top 10 chartz (shows the lack of selling longevity for games this generation) wonder how the sales would be if the japanese didn't try to import their ps3's from south korea

WHERE IS Super Robot TAISEN (PS2) IN ENGLISH for the REST of the WORLD??!!! :evil:

Yeah! Go Super Robot Taisen!

Of course the wii cannot keep selling and selling. Japan isn't an extraordinarily large country. An extremely large amount of wiis have already been sold in previous months.

does anybody here give a damn?

6 Sony games in the top 10, surprising.

@mariokart64fan Shut up please you useless nintendo fanboy. PS3 and Xbox 360 fanboys are bad but nintendo fanboys are by far the most retarded.

Rofl at xbox 360 sales

Well this all makes sense when you consider that Super Robot Taisen is awesome!

How can you say that sales does not mean its good console? Then how come people buy it when its not good? Lol think people!! Many just can't accept Wii out-compete other consoles. Out

mariokart64fan wii is slowly climbing back '!!!!!!! i told ya so , , , 25 to 18 ,,, 7 more thousan d , , ds out did psp this time,,, It is? I could've sworn the Wii sold about the SAME amount of hardware last week. Maybe PS3 sales lowered this week compared to the last. DSi sold more than PSP because of Super Robot Taisen, if you would've read the title it would be obvious by now. PSP did alright for having 2 titles at the bottom of the chart. oh and by the way, cows dont get or wait that already happened, wii outsold ps3 3 to 1 in the us last month , nuff said, Oh now we're cows? For a human being you sure spell worse than us "cows". To be honest, I'd rather be a cow than a blind Nintendo sheep who has no idea what he is talking about. No one care cares it the Wii outsold the PS3 3 to 1in the US because this article is talking about JAPAN. Since when was USA located in Japan? You cried this week, you cried the last. Give it up already, Nintendo will not be #1 in Japan until May. Keep crying and keep hoping until then.

I can't wait for the new super robot taisen!!!^_^

5 weeks in row that means wii fad is over once and for all.

lol ps2 only sold 300 less than 360

Eventually, 360 has sold 1 million units in Japan. http://www.famitsu.com/game/news/1223150_1124.html M$ should thank SE for its help, otherwise, 360 needs to take a year more to reach 1 million.

the ps3 wasn't even necessary since the ps2 is still alive and competing, lol

And here is mariofart64fan trollin again and being a pathetic fanboy that he is... Good sales do not a good console make.

dude wii sold about 7 million and ps3 sold about 3 million i ono where ur going with the "10plus"

oh and by the way, cows dont get or wait that already happened, wii outsold ps3 3 to 1 in the us last month , nuff said, and add to the fact ps3 has only sold near 4 million in japan while nintendo wii has sold 2x that at 10 plus, with this whole weeks sales added into ,

wii is slowly climbing back '!!!!!!! i told ya so , , , 25 to 18 ,,, 7 more thousan d , , ds out did psp this time,,,

The PS3 outran the wii because of the Resident Evil 5 game. But the wii is also going to launch a game of its own, Donkey Kong Jungle Beat. Wii is so strong it has to go down but it will eventually go up. As for the ds, I hope it continues to make really good games. I have one and it really needs to make good games.

No U.C., but SEED = stupid.

I guess everyone in Japan who wants a Wii must have one by now.

I am surprised that the PS3 is once again topped Nintendo. Surprise there for me anyways.

360 outsold the PS2....yay now were getting somewhere

@ thekey Oh nooooo, look who more than doubled the PS3 sales and beat out the PSP by 5,600 units. Its the DS! Seriously though, no one is surprised the 360 doesn't sell well in Japan. In fact its abit of a rarity when it does sell well there, but at least people are still buying them, which is better than people not buying them. If anything I'd be celebrating the PS3 outselling the Wii again, however the Wii is so far ahead it really doesn't matter anymore does it?

I guess thekey is totally ignorant about JAPAN. *sigh...* fanboys...

Yay Super Robot Wars! =D Now if only one of the (non-Original Generation) games would get localized...;_;

i love the super robot taisen series!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice but, tactical RPG so if I bought it in the US it would have too many Hiragana and Kangi words for me to enjoy it so hope for a US release. I just bought Jump Ultimate Stars for DS I hope the DS stays region free so I can Kick ass with Kenshin.

Wow thekey, do you piss your PS3 pajamas at night? Of course PS3 is going to outsell the 360 in Japan.... that is no surprise to anyone.. even 360 fanboys.

no1 said 100 below u, so who r u talking 2? im quite sure i doulble checked the 2 comments below and im quite sure thekey said 300

5,400-5,100 = 300. . . not 100. . go back to school and stop playing video games!

I see that Japan doesn't let go the PS2. Well, the games, at least but it's still kinda surprising. I'm glad DS is strong there. I wish we could say the same here...

Oh no look who sold 300 consoles more than the PS2??? Ouh Oh look who's below PS3??? Nuf said.
