Survey Says Revolution is Mighty Popular

Survey Says Revolution is Mighty Popular

According to a new survey conducted by Famitsu, Revolution has captured the interest of most Japanese gamers.

Famitsu, the highly respected Japanese publication, recently conducted a post-E3 survey to find out what console Japanese gamers were most impressed with so far. The results were fairly interesting.

Despite the huge lack of information and details on Nintendo's side, the Revolution managed to pull away as the most anticipated next-generation console in Japan. The survey discovered that 42.2% are drooling over Nintendo's Revolution. It seems that the information, though scarce, was enough to win over many Japanese gamers. The innovative design and nice, slim size was apparently a nice plus for the Revolution.

Sony's PlayStation 3 wasn't too far behind with 39.8% of Japanese gamers interested in the new console. However, Microsoft doesn't seem to be capturing too much Japanese interest once again with their Xbox 360, which a modest 18% of Japanese gamers are highly anticipating.

That's cool.

I'm a gamer geek so i'll just buy all three at some point assuming they have a decent library of softs (something Nintendo and Microsoft seem to fail to realize).

Nintendo is the strongest when it comes to software, I find that comment laughable. It doesn't have the quantity, but it sure as hell as the quality.

If you're talking third party, that isn't a fault of Nintendo, because they don't choose what platforms a developer/publisher will put a game on. They try, but since Sony started the whole "kiddy" propaganda, it is increasingly difficult. Ah well, at least they still make a profit, which is more than I can say for their competition.

Still, all in all, Nintendo has the best library of software. Easily, especially considering Nintendo's first party games. Though it's all depends on opinion, of course.


If you're interested in polls, though, take a look at this. On that site of all places, Revolution is kicking ***. Quite interesting, to say the least.
