In regards to JRPGs, I would love to see Microsoft create first-party titles aimed at Japanese gaming audiences, rather than paying for third-party exclusivity. Having a title be first-party would mean that it would never come out on a competing console, and it could create more Japanese fans of Microsoft Studios. I imagine that would be much more costly than paying for exclusivity, but maybe that is one of the ways Microsoft can do better in that region. Suffice it to say that I will be very impressed if a couple of those 15 exclusives are first-party, Japanese market-oriented titles.

LOL. You make it sound so easy, as if Microsoft could just create a couple JRPGs (with their non existing Japanese studios) just to cater to Japanese people, that don't buy xbox consoles even after all the JRPG games it got early this gen from SquareEnix and Mistwalker.

You are right. However, they should totally buy Mistwalker (They helped funding it, I don't see why not purchase it afterwards), so that they've got their Japanese side covered (along with Capcom, which enjoys multiplatforms).
