Apple is just about the only western company I know of that sells well in Japan... It's always been part of the Japanese culture to reject foreign companies and products to a greater degree than most countries do.

Basically, give them a decent home-made alternative and you can kiss foreign sales goodbye.

A pack of lies.

Just because they don't want the Xbox - a system that doesn't even support most Japanese games doesn't mean they don't buy american. 

Blame the people instead of the product...its really old isn't it?

I said they had a quality home-grown product. Japanese markets are far more insular than most, something that's been well known for ages. Actually take a look at the numbers on the site you posted; they're not indicative of a market that's terribly interested in American products for a country with a population of nearly 130 million. If anything, it suggests the opposite.
