It is less bad for MS. Nintendo and Sony have lost the 20% that the Canadian $ has lost against the US $ and the 10 % that the US $ has lost against the Yen. So Sony and Nintendo has lost roughly 30% of what they used to make from Canadian consoles when they convert it to yen.
On the other hand, when MS sells a console in Canada, they only lose the 20% I talked about and when they sell one in Japan, they make an extra 10% without increasing their price in Japan.
