I mean Its a great piece of technology and Japan still doesnt seem to bite, What more do they want???

I think its because xbox is from a different country and they seem to some-how believe that japan was the one that created the video game industry, which is why I suppose they refuse to buy anything foreighn!!!

 

pretty B.S. in my opinion

By your logic they shouldn't buy Apple because Sony "INVENTED" the walkman.

America is going exactly the same way, by the next gen I am willing to bet a wager on x720 (or whatever) being the bestselling console in NA by some margin...then the story will be "Sony or Nintendo can't sell in NA because Americans would no longer buy a foreign (Japanese) console".

I hope Kinect does well in Japan.

LOL if you believe people in the U.S. buy xbox because its american, people buy it because it has the genres they love, Sports, fps, rpg, and to some extent racers. In the U.S. people buy consoles because they have the games they like or a fresh new experience. up til about 2008 360 had a much better Japanese lineup than PS3 but still nobody bought it because it wasn't japanese.
