An ode' to PS3's in Japan

((side note: sorry for the lack of update yesterday, I had a damn bad Migraine and was all messed up))

Enterbrain has revealed that the ratio of PS3 to purchased games in Japan is 0.98 percent, meaning that more systems were sold than games.

This delves into the realm of online retailers purchasing systems for over-seas sale and things like that. But what this really boils down to is that the hardcore gamer in Japan is not flocking to the stores to get a PS3, because if he/she was there would be a higher percentage of game sales to systems.

Everyone said there would be so much demand for this system, and us naysayers pointed and laughed at them for their silly ideas, and lo and behold the system is failing in the one place you would assume it wouldn't.

In other news, the games that are selling? Mobile Suit Gundam and Ridge Racer 7. Ridge Racer!!
