I always thought it obvious that the xbox brand will dominate NA and eventually uproot the japanese brands. The wii did the unexpected this gen but by next gen that too will be considered a "failure" in NA.
Everyone is quick to point out the the Japanese are "zenophobic" and hates the american xbox but turns a deliberate blind eye to the fact that an American console dominates America for the same reason.
I am not forgeting that it is games that make Japanese buy japanese and xbox is catered for americans but if you think that is the full story you are naive.
The next gen will be Xbox all over the others in NA.... if they American consumer have any money to buy it then.

except Playstation will take over next gen they already have europe and japan now they will reclaim us and be the king again :D

PS marketshare is massively down in US, down by a large amount in EMEAA and down in Japan... How is that anything other than a global decline and why will it change next gen?, I am genuinely interested in your response unless its just "cos it will"

because of it's original pricing.. my first console was a 360 myself because it cost over $1000 for a new ps3 only rich people could afford it, and ever since sony decided to take a risk they let microsoft in and microsft started buying people for timed dlc which got xbox owners to stay with the xbox... in the end it's sony's fault that they arn't a market leader yes they will eventually overtake the 360 but it will be after the 720 and PS4 are fighting it out... but nobody owns anystates that is proof of the xbox so next gen is really up to who ever has the best console and which console has the next call of duty
