Here are the latest Japanese console hardware sales for the week of
October 22 - 28:

1. NDS Lite - 76,243
2. PSP - 59,792
3. Wii - 27,502
4. PlayStation 3 - 18,785
5. PlayStation 2 - 11,698
6. Xbox 360 - 3,718
7. GB Micro - 64
8. GameCube - 58
9. GBA SP - 41
10. NDS - 30

The novelty of the Wii is looking like it is wearing out and both the
Wii and DS are showing a big drop in sales numbers, indications of
reaching saturation levels. This has been happening for a few months
now in Japan with sales of the PS3 and PSP starting to ramp back up in
comparison. It is becoming obvious the PS3 is the console that comes
out on top after the Beanie Babies appeal of the Wii. The xflop 3-
shitty isn't even in the picture, being more like the fake dog poop of
consoles. The Japanese market is starting to see the PS3 is the game
console and entertainment system for 2008 and beyond. Sony, the PS3
and PSP own 2008 and beyond while the xflop 3-shitty continues its
slide into the shithole of death.

He would have if he ever bothered to read any of the replies to the
pathetic threads he makes.

He probably still thinks that was an Xbox screenshot.

He hasn't even bothered to remove the evidence of his stupidity from
his geocities account.

I just love it. Bliggety thinks this is bad news for the DS and Wii. They are
at saturation levels because of huge sales for months on end and if the PSP
and PS3 are going to catch anything they will need the same thing. The PS3 and
the PSP sales are not catching the DS and Wii sales but the Nintendo sales are
dropping because of saturation(please tell us you are not that stupid
Bliggety). Saturation levels mean the Nintendo systems will be dominating the
software charts for a long while.

Oops....I mean in Japan. We all know that two consoles are dominating the US
software charts and neither one starts with a P. Sucks to be you little
Bliggety Blu Boy.

LOL

Sony would have to sell at numbers higher than this for about 2 years
to get even close to catching the DS and the Wii. Nintendo won't be
shaking in its boots for a long, long time.

Nintendo won't EVER be shaking in its boots for fear of competition,
because they don't have any. They sell unique child's toys that will
live or die by their own merits. Sony may as well try to compete with
iPods. In a very broad sense they *are* competing with iPods, and
anything else that occupies a person's attention, but you have to
narrow it down somewhere.

If Nintendo *was* looking over its shoulder, which I doubt they are,
they should be looking at the people who are pumping out the Rock
Bands,Singstars and Guitar Heros of the world. You never know what
the next fad will be and if someone comes up with something that can't
be done on the Wii (or doesn't need the Wii, or any other console for
that matter) then the Wiil could find itself going the way of the hula
hoop, gathering even more dust than it already is.

I take it you don't like the Wii LOL.

The "hardcore gamer" attitude that the Wii is just a child's toy comes
off as just pretentious. Of the dozens of people I know who own a Wii,
only 2 have children in the household - actually 3 since I have a kid
but he doesn't count in this context because he's less than 5 months
old.

While there's no denying there are a lot of games aimed at children
since the publishers also have the same perception of the system, the
better games are simply party games aimed at casual gamers (or single-
player games like Metroid, Paper Mario and Zelda).

Galaxy is coming out later this month and Super Smash Bros. comes out
early next year.

It's legitimate to complain that few publishers seem to be planning or
releasing non-"kiddie" games, but the games are there.
