360 will penetrate Japan as much as a Chevolet Cavalier would. Japanese are too proud to own a foreign product and face it, 360 is no Apple Ipod. And I believe general public there doesn't like MS anyway.

I think they are holding out for Wii and PS3 and I think Wii will win with lower price. Much like DS > PSP. Another reason why MS is rooting for Nintendo.

Oh snap, I didn't even look at what you drive/drove. Just a random sample. hahahaha

SquareEnix also has a few 360 titles. And MS are getting a lot more Japanese developer on side this time. But the result is the same. It's not about game quality or quantity, it's national pride. Square could release pong on PS3 and fans will praise it as the next big thing in gaming.

Well look at Microsoft's Xbox Live Arcade ...

Its not great games but yet people play them for hours on end...
Thats why I believe wii ..............will be successful as well...

Basically all this console war is way too early when 2 of them arent even here yet acually ...when you think about it

MS should have marketed the 360 under a different name in Japan. After the xbox failure did they really think another console named xbox would do well?

Dummys.
