Forums - Microsoft - Microsoft to double Game Library in Japan

CDiablo on 12 December 2007

I dont get why MS even tries anymore, its clear that no matter what XBOX brings to the table the Japanese dont want it. People always give the same excuse that XBOX is all FPS's, which is a load of crap. The best selling PS3 titles in Japan are all multi platform games. The exclusives sell like shit. XBOX just isnt cool to have. MS give up and use your money to take back europe.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

It's like they're trying to create a new section in the market.
Next year tittle that will sell over 75k :

* Blue Dragon 2
* Dead or alive 5
* Ninja Gaiden 2
* Infinite Indiscovery
* Idolm@ster 2
* Mass Effect
* Devil May Cry 4
* Bioshock


Devil May Cry 4 won't be released on the 360 in Japan ;(, as far as I remember.

 They got to be talking about other new games under way.

I admire M$ for all their effort in Japan, it's a like a dog going back to a home where it's kicked out of....

Well I'd say that it is a blockbuster for the 360 here in JP. Blue Dragon has sold just over 200K copies to a userbase of 500K which is pretty good, ~40% of the userbase owns it.

Anyway, glad to hear that they're not abandoning 360 users here. Looking forward to the wide of variety of titles next year :)

 Yes, it will be released. I mean if you look at the DMC4 JP webpage you can see the PS3 and 360 logos at the bottom of the page.

Im not going to rely on that. I heard the same thing about RE5 360, which I think won't be released in Japan.

I remember reading an article about it, shame I cant find the source. We'll see either way, though its garaunteed to not sell as good as on the PS3.

 Ummm...ok, so you're not going to believe the official site. Clicking enter it actually says it will be released on the PS3, XBOX 360 and PC.

I mean many stores already have pre-orders available for both PS3 and 360 versions.
