you wouldnt call 1 million consoles a foothold in Japan then?

oh...and you completely missed my point.......

In relation to the amount of money they have thrown at it? Quite frankly, no.

 

Take of your fanboy glasses. MS has made a huge headway into Japan.

From

1:26 ratio for Xbox vs PS2

to

1:3 ratio for X360 vs PS3

Yes, much better. Only they had a big head start, have cut the cost of the system massively, and spent a fortune buying exclusives, none of which have put out. As it stands now, HW and SW is getting owned, with no big games on the Horizon, and owners with nothing to look forward to but E74. Great.
