Steel Battallion Shoots Straight To The Top In Japan
-=G=> Posted on September 7, 2002
With Xbox having an underwhelming experience in Japan so far, this came as a huge suprise to us when we were going around various Japanese online retailers.
Whilst visiting Japans biggest online retailer, Amazon.Co.Jp, we thought we would check the top-100 pre-ordered games on all formats. We were shocked to find Steel Battilon topping the charts, beating off every other game and hardware in development. That includes the Gamecube broadband adapter (4th) and Final Fantasy XI Limited Edition (6th).
For a game that is over double the price of any other game on the Japanese videogame market, this is one hell of an achievement!
Thats not all though, for the first time since launch, we seen another xbox title in the top 15 over in the land of the rising sun! That game is Sega GT 2002 currently 11th in the top-100 preordered games!
