| McDonaldsGuy said: Japan is not as important as it was during the Xbox/ early Xbox 360 days, luckily for Microsoft. But it reminds me just how bad the Xbox 360 launch was. A lot of people said the Japanese wouldn't buy the 360 because they won't buy American products but look at the launch for the 360: Every Party, Perfect Dark Zero, Project Gotham Racing 3, Madden, FIFA, Tetris, Ridge Racer, and Condemned. Terrible for Japan. Microsoft will never succeed in Japan because they do not know how to. |
As much as you might not respect Japan as a competent market, Microsoft has stated numerous times that they do and they will continue to try. The problem with Microsoft is that they just do not really understand the market no matter how hard they try.
