After years of Japan shunning American games, a drastic turn around and good news for Microsoft after Halo 3 tops the game sales chart for the week of 9/24 to 9/30, according to the Japanese software chart Simple 2000.

I think any 360 game topping the Japanese charts whatever the circumcstances is good news for 360. The Halo 3 effect can be seen even in Japan, they have even increased sales from not a lot to a bit more than not a lot but an increase all the same.
I confess I never expect Halo 3 to chart but a slow week and a strong product has done the job. This may even spark a bit more interest. Obviously this is not turning the system round.
