yeah, those production issues have been killing xbox...

OT - glad to see they are finally releasing somewhere else.  we'll finally get to kill off the whole "just wait for xbox to be availible everywhere" excuse for ps4's supreme, unholy domination.

If more of his release leaks turn out to be true, then also China in September is a possibility.

The image of the X360 in Japan was not bad really, in fact it was respected by the gamers, had some games that were worth it but overal was not interesting enough for the big crowd to buy it and their was other stuff they were interested in..a bit how people remember the Dreamcast.

Now the Xbox image was a problem....advertising was also not well



Look American man Bill gatso! With American Hambaga and ewksbawks controller!!  Buy Xbox now!

I am just curious as to the launch line up, has a Japanese developed game been made for the X1?

How else could one explain the lackluster sales.
Japan might turnthings around if they supply enough.

Not released but its happening, from the makers of Deadly Premonition

If selling under 1 million lifetime in Japan is enough for MS, then releasing the One in Japan is a wonderful decision!
