This has been the biggest surprise for me over the holidays. I can't believe how big Kinect is (relatively) in Japan.

I'm willing to bet that, had Kinect released in 2006, PS3 and 360 would be neck and neck in LTD sales in Japan right now.

Since Kinect hasn't really had an effect on 360 HW in Japan,no...just no.

I agree with you. XBox 360 and Kinect could have been released 2 years before the PS3 in Japan and the PS3 would have still caught it and outsold it pretty easily. Japan gamers already made it clear they don't like western games or game consoles. I'm sure at least 1/3 of the XBox 360 sold in Japan were probably bought by American or other foreign gamers who just happen to live in Japan.
