Japan's cultural xenophobia goes back far longer than World War II. While there may still be some who harbor a specific grudge against the US, far more common would be people who don't buy Microsoft simply because Japanese alternatives are available.
I believe that a far more common case is people who simply believe the 360 isn't for them, and that the PS3 or Wii are better matches for their tastes.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
