The good folks atNeoGAFbring us a scan from Famitsu Xbox360 detailing the top 50 best selling Xbox 360 titles in Japan. These numbers come from Enterbrain tracking. Without further ado:
- Blue Dragon – 203,74002. Dead or Alive 4 – 108,61803. Ace Combat 6 – 83,04504. Halo 3 – 82,98705. Ridge Racer 6 – 73,50106. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion – 72,27407. Trusty Bell – 70,24408. Gears of War – 68,27009. Dead Rising – 68,07810. Lost Planet – 61,555
That’s right: the best selling title moved less than a quarter of a million units. I guess that 203,000 units for a Japanese Xbox 360 game is pretty good, though.
Some of the rankings come as a bit of a surprise.Lost Odysseycame in at No. 12 with just over 60,000 units sold; Ridge Racer 6 sold more copies. I would’ve also guessed that Namco Bandai’sIdolm@asterwould have sold better, but only 48,695 copies were sold.
Hey, Japan. IfCuldcept Sagaonly sold 27,000 units, I’d think that would be pretty good motivation to hurry up and release it in the US. We’ll buy it!
These top 50 Xbox 360 come to a lifetime total of 1,818,924. That may sound like a big number, but November’s US sales ofSuper Mario GalaxyandGuitar Hero IIIbeat this lifetime total easily.
