It's also demonstrably untrue since American products like the Apple Ipod and even symbols of American consumerism like McDonalds do well there.

Those are the exceptions to the rule.

So basically you are asserting that your position is unfalsifiable. There are many more "exceptions to the rule" like them, american branded clothing goods are very popular as well. If nationalism were the issue, there shouldn't be so many exceptions to the rule. The reality is that products that appeal to the Japanese' values as well as suit Japanese lifestyle do well, those that do not, do not. The XBox brand has never really matched these values, and having a few members of the declining jRPG genre is not enough to make it so.
