Heads won't be rolling at Microsoft for the Japanese market. They have practically given up on it and there were reports that they would withdraw games like Project Gotham Racing which will only appeal to the Western Market.

It was down to Namco's Tales of Symphonia which sold 193,500 units!

FANTASTIC NEWS.

Now for NOE to get their a*se into gear and get some good advertising going.

How I would love to see that sort of list here in the UK with Gamecube outselling the PS2. How I would rub their noses in it!

Remember the fault that seems to occur approx 15 months after the PS2 first gets turned on?

That's why the PS2 still sells well worldwide :D

Amazing to see the now old PS1 outselling the newer more powerful X-box.

Im guessing many heads have rolled at Microsoft over the past year and a half.

Godd to see Ninty getting ahead of Sony for now at least, although its unsurprising cos most of the gaming world in Japan probably owns a PS2 so its inevitable that sales would reduce slowly lol.

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Wonderful...
... and so easy-to-use even for a technophobe like me. I had my website up in a couple of hours. Thank you.
