Sadly enough for him the Japanese end up caring about other consoles enough to get them to multi-millions, thus disproving his point. Who cares though, lmao.

I'm sure he'd care if the XBO was selling as well as the Switch, PS4 and 3DS there.

The latest numbers show the switch outsold the PS4 there by 2/1, but they also show the switch outsold the XBO, 1047/1, that's gotta be a bitter pill to swallow.

I don't think Microsoft will ever be surprised by Xbox numbers in Japan. The original xbox did a lot of damage there, not only was it a huge slab of a console which was never very appealling to the Japanese, it had to have a downsized gamepad to suit their hands and was lacking games of worth for the Japanese market. The xbox brand is pretty toxic there.  If Microsoft ever comes up a with a portable or hybrid console they may want to market it as something other than xbox in japan.
