Remember howwe showedyou all those RPG-lovin’ Japanese peeps lined up to buyBlue Dragonfor the Xbox 360? Someprelim numbershave come in, and so far so good for the 360’s chances of actually getting some Far East love. According to some extremelyrough estimates, the great Asian hope sold about 70,000 copies.
According to a confusing machine translation from GameSpot China, the Xbox 360 sold either 27,000 or 70,000 units to accommodate the release ofBlue Dragon. If 70,000 is the correct number, an additional 43,000 units of Blue Dragon sold (which is the bulk of the Japanese owners who previously purchased an Xbox 360).
Could the tide really be turning? The 360 really is the best next-gen choice right now. The problem is, do the Japanese really care?
