Enterbrain: Best Selling PS3 Games In Japan So Far
Weekly Famitsu had a short feature celebrating PS3’s 2nd anniversary (they put it as “PS3’s 730 days in Japan”) in issue 12/12 detailing the console’s journey so far in Japan.
Besides looking back at some of the major events during the two years, the mag also asked some industry experts on their view about PS3’s future. Some of them think Ad-Hoc Party, the new service that allows PSP games with local communication play functionality to be able to go online, will spurs PS3 sales. Others hope 45nm Chips can be introduced faster so we can have slimmer PS3.
As always, some sales data were shared. According to Enterbrain’s data, 2,469,448 units of Sony’s struggling console have been sold as at Nov 16 and below are the five best selling software on the system since its launch (also as at Nov 16).
