No point in trying to woo japan anymore. 360 dumped tons of money in Mistwalker exclusives to sell in Japan. They were so sure Blue Dragon would get as big as Dragon Quest with a event and a special CE 360 with figures and such. 360 got Japanese games yeah and a lot of them in the west as well. Still the system was being outsold weekly by GBA. XBO is as alive in Japan as Wii U is anywhere. Japan basically refused XBO entirely,no real audience there for most Japanese games unless it feels more western like a Souls or RE game. Nier? nope. Niche games nope. Those belong on PS4 and handhelds. Forget Japan MS and shoot for China. China loves to adapt western culture atm. Get them hooked on Halo and Forza plus online games.
