well, 07 is the year of xbox (game wise), no question.

Sadly other than Ace Combat and LO, nothing really sold in Japan. lol

I agree.

What does that say about the Japanese market though?

I'm going to go with brand name bias on this one Bob! I never should have bought my Mitsibishi Lancer. Sure it was cheaper and better than the American rival...but that doesn't matter. :)

Seriously though, I wish someone form Japan could post here and let us know for real why the 360 isn't selling there.

 Frankly, those games are just NOT for Japanese consumers. Trust me, I'm as japanese as they come, I will openly admit that xbox's game rocks in 07, but they aren't for me, so I won't buy them. (Bioshock, even Mass Effect). Japanese market is a lot less diverse than the one we have in NA.

 I mean, if you look at games that they do like AceC or LO, they do sell well relative to their installbase.

 And frankly, if xbox has pretty good lineup of RPG in their launch, it would've sold better.
