According to the latest Media Create sales charts, the Sony PlayStation 3 has taken the number 3 spot in top consoles sales in Japan beating out both the Wii and the Xbox 360.
Japanese Hardware Sales (Nov. 5th – 11th)
- DS Lite: 78,854
- PSP: 58,964
- PS3: 55,924
- Wii: 34,546
- PS2: 9,043
- Xbox 360: 5,817
It seems as though the Xbox 360 jump in sales was only short lived, and with the price drop and release of the 40GB PS3 in Japan, sales can only get better for Sony. Also, if you live in Japan, Sony has released the new White Dualshock 3 controller allowing gamers to have rumble with their SIXAXIS.

I’m waiting for the 360 fanboys to start saying “thats only because its Japan and Sony is a Japaneese company wah wah wah”… and while that is a very factual statement *puts a gold star on their comment and hangs it on the fridge* it might also have to do with the superiority that the system offers… and just think of all the cool shit that japan will have for their system that we may NEVER get … unles one shops on ebay!
