“Breaking news – someone makes another comment for a MNN article talking about how Xbox products continues to sell like shit in Japan. Welcome to the year 2002, and here’s your wooden stick and a dead horse for you. Up next, the weather!”
Well said dude
||If you don’t like it then leave…||
Or how about…if YOU don’t like what I’m saying, YOU leave.
||You’re the one crying human, I merely pointed out a logical solution to it…||
You’re the one acting like an rp’ing tard on an online gaming forum. I think I come out ahead here.
||So amusing…||
Likewise, loser.
||Still crying, how adorable…||
Still following the bread crumbs. How adorable.
Ikr Microsoft should just quit on Japan
I know this is completely unrelated, but did anyone see the Metal Gear Solid Survive trailer?
I bet Kojima would shake his head if he were to see this. But he probably wouldn’t give a damn when he’s his own man making a brand new IP without Konami on his back.
I cant believe 5k people every week are buying a Wii U japan. I like my Wii U, but if I didnt own one by now, I dont think I would buy one less than a year before the new console hits. That just shows you that the average person doesn’t keep up with gaming current events.
Considering no games are coming out the wiiu is selling…
Or maybe Minecraft and Mario games still sell really well, even for a near-dead console.
