It's not a handheld so Japan barely counts.

Right, because people don't buy home consoles in Japan? oh wait, its only Xbox consoles they don't buy :).

It never hit Xbox hard and it didn't help Sony sell more software than MS. If you look at non-Japanese games released over there you'll see that the sales figures are most of the time laughable. While UK and US give MS a tremendous edge over competition with more multi-plat sales and on top of that XBL subscriptions. Xbox is really a money making machine without Japan.

You know Japan is the biggest video game market in the world right? Well it helped Sony sell more consoles than MS, at least now anyway. Wonder why non-Japanese games don't sell there... maybe because they don't apply to Japanese people :P. Its funny how , and in fact sell better in the West sometimes, while MS cannot even be bothered to try.
