Hentai game outsells XBOX 360 in Japan

[KnightofNachos]

I still need to play Battle Raper 1 and 2.

Well, I've heard of Shenmue, but nothing too interesting.

Blasphemy! It is almost impossible to top that greatness!

[solrac500]

and again i say xbox 360's only hope is halo 3 which is sad that the whole system is based off one game

[Bobdrakke]

Could of been two but they some how f**ked it up and Yu suki will not be doing Shemue 3 which would easily be a good way to increase sales of X-box 360.

Hentai games already have an established market in Japan, where as large clunky american consoles do not.

I haven't played any of those type of games (but mainly because I know it would be very frustrating with my poor level of japanese and not knowing many kanji at all) but I hear that to heart and air and some others actually have an engaging storey and/or interesting believable characters.

Is it a big surprise that a console that leans of a shooting genre game such as Halo to be unpopular in Japan (where shootersare not especially common or popular)

[MoloMowChow]

it's not surprising...many Jap people out there crazy for the hentai. Outselling Xbox 360 is not that big of a deal...

I mean, cigarettes outsells Xbox 360, right? Now that's surprising!!

Well, think about this- would you rather watch extremely busty women have hot lusty sex, or pay over $400 to play Perfect Dark Zero?

I thought so.

There's also the simple fact that the Japanese prefer to support Japanese products, particularly in a field that has traditionally been dominated by them.

The PS3 and Revolution will probably both outperform the 360 over there, but I expect MS may have a good chance at taking the lead in North America and Europe, especially with the lower costs and easier hardware to program for. In every console generation, quantity of new games always ends up being the deciding factor.

[MoloMowChow]

well, what can we say. Cartoon women with huge eyes all underage wearing skirts that just barely expose their panties and having perfect bodies is better then a macvhine that overheats...

and what's with the laughing man pictures?

[Hijuda]

and what's with the laughing man pictures?

I guess the Laughing Man icons were placed to censor faces. Apperently the editor was a huge GITS fan.

I still need to play Battle Raper 1 and 2.

The second is better, though I'd prefer Aga over both anyday.

you don't mean that!

A-Ga was BORING AND PLAIN BAD!!!!!! All graphics, no gameplay.
Stick with the Studio E-Go! hentai RPG games. I didn't play Battle Raper. Illusion's 3D games are notoriously plain, bad or boring.

To Heart X-Rated is quite a big full DVD. I didn't "purchase" it *coughdownloadcough* cause petite underage girl hentai is the kind I avoid like the plague.

And yeah, Saturn has several softcore hentai games. The majority are strip-mahjong games, I have several of them You only see boobs, nothing else. Steam Hearts' Saturn is very toned down. The H-scenes are censored or cut off-screen. The PC98 version shows all

Enough about hentai, I know way too much

It was predictable that xbox360 wouldn't sell big in Japan. The original Xbox wasn't even that popular over there in the first place. Japanese stick with Japanese-made goodies from Nintendo and Sony
