A tiny amount of Xbox 360's sales in America might have to do with it being an American product but I have never heard that line before and I could not imagine it being a major factor. I think it has something to do with some people in America liking the games that come out on the 360. I mean, people seem to be more likely to buy the DS, Wii, and PS2 in America and those are not American products. There is no "Buy American" popular program in America that I am aware of. I know Wal-Mart used to have ads with that theme buy abandoned it because Wal-Mart knew they could be a more profitable company by selling many products from Asia.
Yes, this might be a shock, but Nintendo and Sony videogames are much more popular than M$ games in America. In fact, to the best of my knowledge, Nintendo has been the overall market leader in America since the mid-1980s.
In America, fun and value are far more important than American company crap when it comes to videogames. I am not sure but I think Apple, Atari, and 3DO were made by American companies and none of those systems are still around because outside of two of Atari's systems, they are bombed in America.
