Always interesting to see how the xflop fanbitches avoid any news that
doesn't fit in their small, distorted view of the *real* gaming
market, not the distorted delusions they have created in their peanut-
sized brains. Monster Hunter Portable 2 for the PSP sold over 700,000
in Japan during its first week of sales, easily going over 1 million
in the second week at this rate. It shows that it is the games that
bring out the sales, and this will happen more and more for the PS2,
the PSP and the PS3 over the next several months. God of War 2 for the
PS2 has over 1 million pre-orders in the U.S. right now. Of course,
million sellers for the PS2 are hardly newsworthy anymore. Wait until
the PS3 is upscaling PS2 games to 720p and 1080i, then game sales for
all Sony products really start taking off. And any idiot knows it is
game sales, not console hardware sales that win wars. Oh wait, the
xflop fanbitches don't know that...but they are not any idiots, they
are exceptional idiots.

Here are the Top 10 best selling Japanese console games for the week
of Feb 19 - 25:

1. Monster Hunter Portable 2nd (PSP, Capcom) - 705,281 units
2. Higurashi no Naku Koroni Matsuri (PS2, Alchemist) - 80,002 units
3. Fire Emblem: Akatsuki no Megami (Wii, Nintendo) - 75,359 units
4. Sim City DS (NDS, EA) - 50,826 units
5. Layton Kyouju no Fushigi na Machi (NDS, Level 5) - 49,979
[186,716] units
6. Wii Sports (Wii, Nintendo) - 47,053 [1,090,736] units
7. Naruto Shippuuden: Gekitou Ninja Taisen EX (Wii, Takara Tomy) -
45,792 units
8. Dragon Quest Monsters Joker (NDS, Square Enix) - 40,507
[1,174,576] units
9. Hajimete no Wii [Wii Play] (Wii, Nintendo) - 35,811 [944,586]
units
10. Picross DS (NDS, Nintendo) - 26,693 [183,357] units

Wow, that's 14 times more than Virtua Fighter on the PS3. Doesn't that
show you how utterly pathetic the PS3 is doing in Japan?

Wow look, not a single PS3 game listed. PS3 is selling about 20K per
week. Thus it will take a long time for sony to sell that so called
"million" that they shipped in japan

*YAWN*

How long has it taken for the PSP to get a big title in Japan? Hmmm.

Oh, and looksie here, Wii sports and play are still selling 30-40k a
week over there.

I guess there's no stopping the Wii and DS!

I noticed you put down the Xbox 360 months ago basically saying it was
pathetic because it was being outsold by the PS2. And yet you're as quiet
as a prison bitch getting some when it comes to the PS3 being outsold by
both the PS2 AND the Xbox 360, lol... So Blig bitch, what do you have to
say about it? Lets see if you're a hypocrite or if you stand by your words.

Oh and here's an example post from Sept 11, 2006 (Great prediction there
Blig bitch, almost as good as your "PS3 will be out by Spring 2006"... lol)

http://groups.google.com/group/alt.games.video.xbox/browse_thread/thre...3858866

"...Just 9k sold in August, in the US, while the PS2 is outselling the
xflop-three-shitty
by a wide margin for the 9th month in a row! How bad can this get?
Well, the xflop-three-shitty has yet to pass that milestone of
out-selling the previous generation consoles, and it hasn't gone up
against the ps3 yet. However, come November, when gamers can actually
see how poor the xflop-three-shitty port-box really is they can then
decide once and for all that the PS3 was worth the wait.
Zacky-crybaby-bitch and his chums churn out excuses over and over,
spiralling out of control, and Swammi Mould0n posting fake Blig Merk
messages as if he's making some cutting satirical satire. They all fail
to dent the xflop supernova that's about to happen, the PS3 will sell
out this year, the xflop will die, and xflop dead will simply be a
graveyard to the elephantine like disaster that was Micro$haft game
studios. "

It's just resale, after the straps broke and smashed the disc that was
sitting on the floor. Whoops!

My question is, can you really buy Wii sports separate from buying the Wii??

Yes, a bit like all those second hand returned PS3 sales that area
eating into the new sales, eh Brenden?

Yes, in Japan, you can - as it isn't bundled with the Wii there.

No, not like that. Those returns were from the idiots that realize they
wouldnt get that huge payoff on ebay.

my comment was in jest, and you know that. There's no denying that Wii is
running away with the show.

And the PS3's great hope in Japan -- Virtua Fighter 5 -- has fallen
completely off the list. How's that for the "real" gaming market Bligz?

Nice to see the PSP gets one adequate-selling game for every 10
blockbusters on the DS though.

Sometimes I think you literally can't get any stupider. But you always
prove me wrong.

Just wait, he'll be crowing about how the PS3 has had a 'hit' with a
game selling 120k this last week, and shifting 10k mnore PS3s.

Pretty much the same way he dismissed the 100k selling Blu-Dragon for
the 360...
