PS3 storms ahead of 360 in Japan

[Tefra]

After only a month on sale, Sony’s PS3 has already overtaken Xbox 360 in the Japanese market to cement an early second place in the next-gen battle in the Far East. As Wii’s launch week sales of 400,000 make it the early leader in the Japanese market, Xbox 360 has sold fewer than 180,000 units in its first year on sale. PS3 recently surpassed this barrier, and already enjoys a lead of nearly 10,000 units, reports Spong.
