None of this will happen. Microsoft have proven over the last 13 years that they do not care about Japanese gamers.

If they did, they would have tried harder with the Xbox and Xbox 360.

13 years? I guess you're ignoring the years 360 received numerous Japanese games.

Nintendo is the only company I feel actually cares about Japan and they should given their success there. Sony and MS just want relevance in Japan and rely on 3rd parties to get it.

While I do agree that there were some exceptional Japanese games on the 360 early on, MS completely failed there in the 360's later years and the complete lack of any such games for the Xbox One's launch suggests that not enough effort is being given to the Japanese market.

There's only two Japanese exclusives that I can think of (correct me if I'm wrong), which are Scalebound and Phantom Dust and a couple of multiplats, whereas there are tons for Sony and Nintendo platforms.

In my opinion, Nintendo have the opposite problem. They care TOO much about Japan and barely about the West.
