That wasn't a major western release. Final Fantasy VII is more significant in the west. Frankly, it wasn't a huge seller on PS4 either.

I wouldn't be surprised if Sony money hatted FFVII so it wouldn't come to Xbox. But as of right now it seems the plan is to bring it to Xbox. By the time that game is ready the X1 userbase could be nearing 40 million.

Ok then, look at MGSV, even that didn't really sell well on XBO compared to PS4/PC. The majority of Xbox One gamers just don't care about Japanese games. It was different last gen because the 360 was in lead and Microsoft funded/bought Japanese games, this time they don't have either.

And I would say that MGS V is more enticing to Xbox One owners than Final Fantasy games.

Steam Spy is tracking good sales for MGSV. But there were a lot of bundle copies and discounts going around for that game.

Does that mean the X1 version wasn't worth the effort? No. There is a potential million seller there. We don't know digital numbers either.

360 didn't really have a significant audience for Japanese games either. Many of them sold less than 500K while a lucky few passed a million.

Final Fantasy XIII managed to sell 2 million+ on 360. But that game hit the market the 360 userbase was around 50 million. Over 5 years into the life of the 360.
