Very simple.
Announce the next Xbox as a joint venture in Japan between MS and either Namco Bandai or Sega.
Sega, despite doing bad with the Genesis/Mega Drive, sold somewhere near 5m systems with the Dreamcast. I think they could do a much better job on marketing the system.
And then get Sega to start working on some serious titles for the X360 - Yakuza 3/4, Shining Force, and the like. As well as broker deals for a few mid-level exclusives from Square/Enix, Namco and Capcom. It's working now, and will work in the future.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
