Default [360Fan]360 outsells PS3 in Japan 2.5-1
Quote:
While the Xbox 360 was outsold by the PS3 in our neck of the woods, Microsoft beat its corporate rival on their own home turf. The Xbox 360's popularity jumped this week hot off the heels of Namco Bandai's Tales of Vesperia, pushing 24,962 consoles out the door -- a 19,603 unit increase from the previous week.

In anticipation of the RPG's popularity, Microsoft created a limited edition bundle that added Tales of Vesperia and a slew of extras in with a standard Xbox 360 Premium (20GB) system exclusively in Japan -- the bundle is reportedly the most sought after package available in the region. Full sales chart for the week after the jump.

Nintendo DS - 60,434
PSP - 58,501
Wii - 38,506
Xbox 360 - 24,962
PlayStation 3 - 9,673
PlayStation 2 - 8,503

Source

So people aren't confused- this is sales # this WEEK and not month total.

Xbox 360 - Cheaper, appeals to younger generation
PS3 - More expensive, better hardware, mature games, appeals to older generation

360 has been out longer, so, lets half that so they are about equal. so that 12,000

So really its

360 - 12,000
PS3 - 9,000

Quite understandable since the 360 is cheaper and its the younger generation that play games

Sales increased five-fold due to a single title? That's impressive in and of itself
