The article the OP is discussing already had at least one if not two threads on here and the figures they used were incorrect as they seemed to estimate the original Xbox figures at 2 million instead of the actual 0.5 million they sold. As such the premise that the original Xbox sold more is completely false and thus the market share for Microsoft in Japan has increased this gen.

I happen to think that the Japanese game developers are not really worth investing in like they once were and the money Microsoft spent on Japan this generation would be better spent focusing on Europe where they could make serious inroads.


Someone brought that up already. I got the Xbox sales originally from IGN, after I posted I double checked and they were wrong. My bad.
