Would it be in the 360's best interest for MS to pull it out of Japan?

So by your logic SONY should pull out of the Americas considering they are getting pummeled there???

love how SONY fanboys love to jump on the 360 when its not selling well. It has been a huge accomplishment for 360 in Japan. From the last gen:
XBOX = 500 000
PS2= 23 000 000 + more
Thats a 1:46 ratio for every Xbox sold in comparison to the PS2

Now
X360 = 1 000 000
PS3 = 3 000 000
Thats a 1:3 ratio for ever X360 sold for ever PS3

You are calling that a failure. Then the PS3 must be a bigger failure in your eyes as well.

@ The bolded: absolutely, I agree.

Remember the old saying, "if at first you don't succeed, try, try again"?

The 360 has helped the Xbox brand make SIGNIFICANT headway in Japan. For that, I see no reason for them to pull out.

If anything, it sets up a true playing ground for the 720 to make even more headway next gen, hence, the industry is moving forward. This is a good thing, no matter how fans try to slice it, and MS gets congrats from me.

     If it has helped the 360 make significant headway in Japan, then I would expect to see it's numbers increasing instead of falling each week.  I really don't see how the 360 will be capable of selling many more units in Japan after the coming storm that is Gran Turismo 5, Final Fantasy XIII, and Versus XIII all arrive as exclusives on PS3.
