This statement is completely unfair. It is a two way street buddy. The Xbox is an American console and surprise: It sold best in America. So then let's look at an "Unbiased" source: Europe. Oups! The PS3 outsold it by a fair margin that keeps growing... Face facts, Xbox 360 had some great advantages in having a year headstart, a cheaper price, and great initial game support and online services. These things were muddled by their terrible quality, their shortsighted and corporatized lack of sustainable game support, and just flat out inferior technology for the price. The world spoke. |
Americans don't have half the cultural loyalties as Japan. hence PS1 and PS2 domination in America. 360 was just cheaper and played the same games. Japanese culture perception was a direct influence on 360 sales. I mean from 05-08, MS tried there, they really did.
BS on your last paragraph. Japan spoke, nothing more. I don't live there and neither do you, so i wouldn't lean on them for a crutch because you live on 360 turf.
