Stagnant overseas sales for Microsoft

Sales of Microsoft's Xbox360 were dead in the latest video game hardware sales report in Japan.

Media Create Co. reported yesterday that the Xbox360 sold only 2,664 units between July 16 and July 22. In comparison, more than 86,000 Wii units and more than 12,000 Playstation 3 units were sold in the same period.

An Additional blow came as the Xbox360 was unable to rank any software titles in the top 50 sales.

The Xbox360 has not faired well in Japan where hardware sales have yet to top half a million, a tiny figure compaired with the 11.6 million Xbox360 units sold worldwide to date.
