The Iceman's Game Journal

After seeing Tim's Game Diary, I started this blog to give me some incentive to actually finish some of the 461+ video games I have (of which I have finished 41.) Hope it works.

Wii Dominated Japan

With all three of the now current-gen systems released in both the US and Japan, it seems that Nintendo has regained their dominance in Japan. So far (according to this report) the Wii had sold 400,000 units in Japan, which is nearly twice the number of PS3s sold (180,000). 360 Continues in the Xbox's footsteps by selling only 170,000 units to date.

Here in the states, the battle between PS3 and Wii is about the same, with nearly 500,000 wiis sold, vs about 200,000 ps3s. Obviously both systems have a ways to got inorder to catch up to the 360, swhich has sold nearly 3.8 million units. Based on the current sales, I doubt that the PS3 will over take either system, but Wii is well on it's way to catching up to the 360.
