Masakari said: There's a lot of hate in this thread for MS and what happened in japan. For me, the truth is that they really tried, and it hasn't worked like they wanted simply because the japanese are inherently resistant to western consoles and games, and also haven't jumped like crazy at the HD bandwagon. You can't tell the 360 doesn't have great games, it does, it works well, has the best online, and MS did try hard with japanese exclusives, even though the quality / quantity ratio isn't the best. The japanese market is in a weird state these last few years, but ultimately, I think Xbox will never get traction there because it's an american console. |
Or because the console is faulty and unreliable and they know it, why does everything have to be blamed on Japan and the people, you're basically calling them racist, maybe they just aren't interested in the concept of roid freaks with big guns and military shooters, I don't really blame them.
That's your opinion btw @ the bolded quote
Why don't you place the blame on Microsoft for rushing their console when they really shouldn't have? Where is the blame on Microsoft? They deserve most of the blame, not Japan.
