360 getting rocked in Japan

In Xbox 360′s second week on the market in Japan, it was outsold by the Nintendo Gamecube. Wow. “The Xbox 360 sold only 8,623 units compared to 17,849 for GameCube – putting them at 1.39% and 2.88% market share respectively.” Maybe they can send some home to ease the production problems Microsoft is having here in the states.

Meanwhile, hacker groups are already getting excited about their Xbox mod chip projects, which they say should have a chip on the market “within weeks.” Microsoft, needless to say, is not pleased, but they’re also confident in their defenses. [CDRinfo]
