Just a forewarning, if you non-japanese xbox owners want the digital only japanese games you will need a japanese xbox.
while disks arent region locked, digital purchases are.

Huh?? No mutiple accounts from different regions like my PS3/4??

XBOX doesn't do that. 
But no worries, you can enjoy needing to pay for a SECOND Kinect rather than hot swapping a single Kinect between your US and Japanese XBOX.
...Even if there is no Japanese only games that use Kinect!  MS just made sure you would have the pleasure of owning a "Japanese" Kinect.

Does making a japanese account make your xbox one japanese? (nope.)

Wonder what weekly sales will be when all the dudebro American military personel based here are done buying Thiers? Might even have a chance of outselling the stellar sales of the 360 here.

Tongue almost through my cheek at this point


Not sure what weekly sales will be, but i'll be shocked if it does better than 360 due to kinect and the higher price tag.



Those Japanese exclusives better be really good with that release date.

''Arc System Works'' A Blazblue action-adventure game confirmed as Xbone exclusive.



I wasn't surprised by that. They did it with Guilty Gear ;)

Now that Guilty Gear is back to PS as a fighting game, I suppose we can expect a Blazblue action/adventure on Xbox, or no more Blazblue at all  :p

Damn that's much later than I was expecting.


What did you expect earlier than that, the 1st? Japan was confirmed for September last month.

Why ms should skip Japan. They won't sell many there


Japan obviously isn't important, even Sony doesn't show much interest in Japan.

A lot of developers are in Japan... so maybe it makes sense to have Xbox available there. Right?

I wasn't aware it was already confirmed. I was expecting it to release this summer. No need to be rude with that comment.
