"Japan is a soulful place for gaming--which is why we're proud to announce Dream Club C+ Omega Party X My Little Sister Can't Really Be This Cute: Hot Springs Holiday for the Xbox One and Kinect 2.0!"

And Boom, the xbox one sells 5k per week..

I really can't understand this hatred towards Xbox, Japan got plenty of those titles exclusive on Xbox, Online Monster Hunter, so basically the first HD episode saw the day on it. And yet Xbox brand is doomed in there. I am actually wondering what should I do if I were the CEO of Xbox Japan Devision..

I wouldn't call it hate, just economic sense.  Microsoft paid for a few exclusives but the overwhelming majority of Japanese games were only on the PS3.  If Microsoft really wants to do better in Japan, they'll use their money to ensure that pretty much everything is multi-plat.  What good are 10 niche exclusives when Sony has many times that without even paying for them?  In that environment, I can't blame Japanese gamers.
