djamb3 Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 4 news related to square enix which tey love, and well...ps2 is still the king there... But let's wait until every console is out so we can take real conclusions.
BeerMonkey Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 was this done before the nintendo conference :S weirdddddd japs
Nintendork Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 I forgot how the inclusion of Snake in Smash Bros. Brawl will widen the appeal of that game hugely. I'd call BS on that because I know for a fact Japanese people would be hyped after seeing footage of Final Fantasy 3 DS- that is a big deal for Japanese people.
Nintendo Fan Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 Something must be wrong::shrug: but then again they do love Square Enix
Jamba Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 Don't forget that these polls can be extremely biased especially when you consider that people probably only got a limitted amount of options to choose from. "What were you most interested in? : Sony PS3 or Sony PS3?"
pedrocasilva Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 1. Impressions and presentation of PS3 controller damn... :/ Sony did it again.
system_error Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 The poll reflects which news users checked on the Famitsu website between 08.05.06 and 14.05.06 - and I assume that many people have been interested in the Playstation 3 price and I am sure not everyone watched the presentation. Nothing bad in those news I think.
Haver Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 Sony have the numbers and they will always have the numbers in the Japanese market. It's the strength of software. The 360 can easily rival the PlayStation in the West software-wise, although I imagine Sony will still have the numbers and the market, but in Japan it's an entirely different ball game.
triforcemario Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 I don't understand those Japanese people, one minute, they're going crazy for the Nintendo Wii, next minute, they're going crazy for the PS3 and square-enix.
Space Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 Just because they said they were interested in it doesn't mean they were impressed. I expect quite a few Sony fans will have walked away contemplating Microsoft and Nintendo's offerings. Hopefully.
Gaijin von Snikbah Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 It could be a number of Playstation fans voting...
Social Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 You guys find this strange? I don't. It's Japan, Sony is king there as far as consoles are concerned. GIve it another year and we'll see how it goes.
mike-zim Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 PS3 controller? i thought it was the PS2 controller that you can now shake a bit? i must have missed something.
DCK Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 That's only until they see how much it costs. Japanese have deep pockets, but Sony are really going too far. In all fairness, this is what you'd expect from a Japanese mag.
MunKy Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 It will be PS£ and Wii in Japan. MS dont fare too well from what I've read.
The3rdChildren Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 They have small cocks anyway, so fuck them. </fanboy rant>
demonmike04 Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 Oh well, looks like the Playstation ThWii has won over the japanese..
MunKy Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 They have small cocks anyway, so fuck them. </fanboy rant> Reminds me of the Chinpokomon ep of South Park.
