Natal likely won't do anything in Japan. Worldwide, it might give it a boost, but I really doubt it will make any significant changes in sales. Should be an interesting add-on though. Sadly, it's being overhyped by 360 fans and is bound to disappoint many. Just wait until the thing is at least somewhat close to coming out.

You serious? I would think Japan is the one place Natal might show the most interest. The idea behind Natal certainly seems to fascinate the Japanese. I do agree that it may boost X360 a bit in NA and PAL as well especially the Wii crowd. Who knows maybe we will start seeing X360 with Natal's attached at nursing homes now instead of Wii's. LOL

 

As for OP, I am still fascinated by the possibilities that Natal may offer/allow. Until I see any kind of software on it that peaks my interest  it will be just that and only that.

Given the strong response from leading developers in Japan...I think there's a solid chance that Natal might have success in Japan...is it going to start some radical re-alignment of the gaming industry in Japan...I highly doubt that, but I do think it's going to make an impact, just as M$ push to provide seed funding for jrpgs helped to get those games on it's platform.
