JaggedSac said: What has MS spent in Japan so far? Also, the Live subscription and MMO subscription all-in-one deal is a great idea. |
I haven't seen exact numbers anywhere, but the original Xbox sold about 1/3 as much without almost no advertising or purchased exclusives, whereas the 360 has been heavily advertised throughout its life and has many purchased timed/full exclusives from Japan (Star Ocean, The Last Remnant, Tales of Vesperia, and of course now this, though I hope they didn't pay much for it) in addtion to some completely paid for first party Japanese oriented games (Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon). Logic dictates that MS has spent far more this generation than they have gained in sales over last generation.
