It's not news that PS3 sales are going to tumble until FFXIII is released in JP. To make matters worse, it may even come out on 360 and we all know the deal with Metal Gear and Devil May Cry. At this rate, everyone in Japan have a Wii and DS within the next 4 years.

I guess Xbox is the "US console" and PS3 is the "Japan console" and neither are as big as the Wii.

Hmm, they were a lot greater last week. Twice as great in fact. 50,000 consoles is more than enough, I realize that, I'm just pointing out that's rather low compared to previous weeks.

There we go again. Nintendo doing well, as I expected, and Sony doing bad, also as I expected.

Dwightk, are you an idiot? The Wii is pwning everywhere. But I love your name. That shows also pwns.

Oh, come on! Kingdom Hearts should go on DS now because the third one is going on a PORTABLE platform not console. But they are not sure about putting it on PSP or DS! Be smart and choose the highest seller.

Master Foot, don't forget there's an exclusive FF game due out for Wii soon in Japan. It's staying away from the traditional RPG elements of FF but it's supposed to be very good.
