We were talking about Sony.  Everything is made in China, or so it seems.

How ridiculous. They dont have a single product tailored to the japanese needs, much less the console.

What is it about the XB1 that is not tailored to the Japanese needs?  High end tv/audio productgs are HUGE in Japan.  So, a game system with HDMI passthrough should be an obvious feature that would prove to be popular there.  Seeing as how M$ is manufacturing the console, why are they responsible to make all of the software too?  Either way, because the XB1 and the PS4 are so x86 friendly, they both will have the opportunity to run most of the apps that are Japanese native.
M$ will probably put out a token Japanese centric title, but more than likely if their is any penetration of the XB1 there, they will pay for ports.


Are you serious? That huge brick? You think it appeals to them? I see no special software tailored to japanese tastes unless they are still hiding it.
