Poeple are being ignorant it's not the fact that the XBOX 360 is american , it's microsoft's faliure to sell the XBOX brand to japanese in a way that apeals to them. Japanese people aren't going to ditch a product they feel to be superior for inferior japanese alnternatives they may be patriotic but they aren't stupid.
The Japanse XBOX brand obviously isn't apealing to the Japanse people , the PS3 which is arguably inferior in what it can offer to the japanese gamer ( in terms of software suited to the japanase gamer ) has a stronger image in japan , a brand name which apeals to the japanese gamer and one they can relate to.
I can't think of any of the top of my head by i'm sure there are western electronic companies that do well there , don't they use Windows XP over there ?
