Microsoft’s Efforts to Bring Japanese Games to Xbox One Should be Encouraged, Not Mocked

It literally take 8 years. Microsoft dropped support after five. Now, whether they want to bother or not is none of my bsness, yet the easiest way to tear down this wall like Reagan did asks only that MS allows Japanese devs to release their games through XBL only, since the physical runs are what consumes money. Porting costs are no longer high. 

I do like some of those games, and I don't like Sony. I should be able to have them without having them... 

You have to understand you are a minority, the mass already proved their lack of care.

I agree with games being ported, it's not a problem per se, all games should be available on a single place in an ideal world, but exclusivity can be better for them on the real world, even big games that get ports are performing horribly on the XBOX like FFXV and MGSV, and exclusivity push could have driven more people to be interested on it (as it happens) and for minor games it can mean a lot, as they get visibility by being exclusive, and it might be more benefical than being on multiple platforms, specially if the one it would open to wouldn't grant much more sales anyway.

I think NioH is a good example of this.
