What did exactly X360 offer to Japanese gamers that they may have been interested in? When there were some JRPGs coming it didn't sell that badly, most of the 1.6m sales it got were from that couple of years.
And the Japanese go crazy for Apple despite Sony's offerings. They also absolutely love Disney, probably more so than in America. When it comes to clothing and Jewelry European or American brands are very popular. Korean cosmetics are very popular.
So please stop this "the Japanese are nationalistic" bullcrap. Of course they'll more inclined to get things that they have more exposure to and that are more suitable to their tastes.
The 1st Western game in Japan on PS3 is CoD: MW3 at 21st, according to VGC. The first Japanese game on 360 in the US is RE5 at 48th. By this reasoning Americans are more nationalistic than the Japanese. But of course it's just a matter of taste.

Are you serious or really whispering trolling messages?

Very well reasoned post. I guess that's all you have...

Yeah I though tyou made some very good valid points personally....not sure why he made the comment that he made....ehhhh oh well.
Very good post though!

Very good valid points? RE 5 on x360 sold couple of thousands short of PS3 version, when it was the first RE on Xbox system with a physical copy.
You think Americans are more nationalists than Japanese too? Where does MGS series sell the most? Nintendo/Sony consoles sell the most where?
Call of Duty doesn't even sell like a groping game in Japan I think.

Bolded: Irrelevant. It wasn't about how much it sells for each console, but how it sells compared to other kinds of games (Wester/Japanese)
Italics: I never said that. Quite the opposite, I said that none are. It's a matter of taste and not nationalism. Please read carefully and don't make up stuff.
Underlined: CoD sells very well considering how well PS3 games usually perform in Japan and that historically FPSs have never been popular here.
There's no nationalism at play here. People don't go "I'm not buying it coz it comes from abroad". Seriously.
