Here's a chief reason as to why the 360 isn't successful in Japan... it isn't appealing. Heck, even to me as a westerner, this commercial isn't appealing!

Can't embed for some reason.

That commercial is very old. Please show something newer to prove why Microsoft has ongoing issues. This is one of the old marketing problems MIcrosoft had before. They were making western geared commercials when they are trying to get eastern support.

The issue is, you need to make a good impression, especially when you're already the outsider. RROD and ads like this did nothing to help, anyway
