Even that would be a Mr. Burns nose... 15% is not a insignificant amount.

What would you say about the people who were hopping on tier 2 and china?


There is nothing to say. The Xbox is a system aimed at the needs of the american market. It does not carry the same type of appeal outside of it.

If Microsoft is really serious about winning globally, they need to rebrand and broaden their software focus. Though in Japan, whatever they do seems like a lost cause. Still, if they are serious, they need to be willing to take those losses. They were in the right track with the 360, but then they gave up. That RPG wave at the beggining of the 360's life was super significant. If they had kept on with it, the X1 would have had a chance.

Theres also a different idea. wich is to create alliances in the japanese market. Say SEGA for example shouldnt be very expensive. Carry that SEGA name into the console instead of Microsoft and call it something different than Xbox. Sales already got better.


As sad as it is, it seems like only Sony cares about going uphill battle and stick to their ideas and fight for it even if it cost money and takes time. But it sure bear fruits.
