HARDWARE: 1 Game Title Can Shift Sales




just goes to show if you have the right title people will rush out an buy the hardware, it happened with Crash Bandicoot and now with Xbox 360 exclusive Star Ocean.

In Japan Microsoft's console outsold both the Wii and PlayStation 3, but it came within 4,000 units of the PSP. The Nintendo DS was still the best seller of the week, but with only two titles in the software top 10, its sales fell 16,000 units.

May be just may this exclusive opens the doors for developers to negotiate better rates based on sales of hardware?
