They renamed it "Peenect", placed it in the loo and got all the local freaks in line for free.

5k?hope it



Hmm it would be nice to see the Xbox 360 do better and maybe it will. However when the Playstation is the default console for the locals at present you have to be signficantly better than the current champions to supplant them if your console offers similar values to the one which is leading in the market. At least now Kinect gives the chance for the 360 to offer different values to the PS3.



Tease.

it would be awesome if 360 starts doing better in Japan... a man can dream :D



Kinect won't work there simply because of the living space avaliable to the average consumers there, there is simply no room, the way the Wii was designed is that it'd work even in small rooms, so the Move followed that path. There is a good reason why the PS2 camera and Eyetoy never took off even in that country, room, room, room! people just DON'T have the space. I know a lot of Euro people will face that problem too. It was a good idea, with design flaws, it's simply not a good device for global penetration.
