and again with the same tired IpoD statement...HermitCommando
WTF you again?
Do you know that Microsoft puts in a pathetic effort in the Japanese market?
After almost 2 years there are only 4 quality Japanese appealing games for it: ridge racer VI, DoA 4, Blue Dragon, and Eternal Sonata with a 6 month gap in each.
Also I already said that computer components cost much more in Japan then in America so PC gaming is highly expensive.
Finally I actually go to Japanese forums and I can honestly state people taht this whole "Japan is racist against American products" thing is the just laughably pathetic.
back home we have a saying, "its the expection that confirms the rule"meaning that using the same excuse of the ipod over and over only confirms that the japanese dont buy anything made in japan because the ipod is the only thing we can say

Again more of these pathetic posts. Let me give you some products that the Japanese posters said that they enjoyed over Western products.
McDonald's Corporation
Burberry Trench coat
Paul Smith (fashion brand)
Dell PC
Nike shoes
Budweiser
Levi痴 jeans
Coca-Cola
Converse.
Marlboro
Scotch Whiskey
Mizuno shoes
Adidas
Ipod
It's not false. Japan buys very few American products. The IPod, World of Warcraft, Starcraft, Windows XP & Vista, and a few other things. They don't buy many American cars or many American electronics (T.V., DVD's, Stereos, Speakers, etc..). America buys like 100x's more Asian products then Japan buys American products. I blame this on the government mostly for allowing Japan to import all their wares, but not export more American products. blackace
So by your logic us Americans are racists because we barely watch any Japanese movies. I mean the highest grossing Japanese film didn't even break 100 million. Also I think that has to do to the fact that American products suck compared to Japanese products *excluding PC*
Okay so now let me give a message to everyone in this thread nicely:
Is it so hard for people to understand that if a system releases only one exclusive quality appealing game every half a year that it's going to bomb in the region it's trying to get into?
It isn't rocket science why the 360 is failing in Japan people. If the Saturn couldn't break into the Western market with it's handful of appealing games then surely the 360 can't break into Japan with it's few appealing games.
