Microsoft's Xbox 360 maintained hardware sales figures in Japan from the week prior on stronger software selection to bolster increased interest in the territory.
Media Create Co. on Fri. reported that the 360 sold 2,101 units from Oct. 2 - Oct. 8. The week prior, the hardware sold 2,195 units.
The consistent sales were helped by two new Xbox 360 releases in Japan and Capcom's prior week release of Dead Rising.
The Xbox 360 has performed poorly against handheld offerings in Japan like the Nintendo DS and the PSP. Microsoft will drop new RPG offerings like Blue Dragon and Eternal Sonata to boost future sales.
Microsoft has sold over 5 million Xbox 360 units to date, mostly in the U.S. and Europe.
