Latest Japanese Hardware Sales - Talon
Media Create has once again released the latest Japanese hardware sales and this week, things seem a bit more shaky than last. This week’s figures saw PlayStation 2 increase from 51,700 units last week to 63,800, with GameCube shooting up from 7,100 to 7,900 units and Game Boy Advance increasing from 30,600 to 37,000 units. Not all was positive on the hardware charts though. Unfortunately, Xbox saw a slight decrease in sales from 3,200 to 3,000 units. Of course, the real shocker this week was the unexpected return of Dreamcast to the charts. During the week, Dreamcast sold 47 units. As always, weekly sales figures as well as annual totals are shown below.

I am glad to see that the Dreamcast is becoming more popular.
I wonder if it will have a chance of becoming more popular over here?

lol! Thats a bit harsh on the Americans isnt it?
lol- actually DCs became so popular after the price slash that Sega imported them back from America to sell them...
Those increased Dreamcast sales MUST have been second hand sales, cos Japan have officially sold out of Dreamcasts!
I dont know how knew ones could be for sale!
