holy shit lmao
Wow... People are trolling hard the Xbox One huh? So much mockery here.
It is however expected that the console wont do good in Japan. It never did, and if the X360 that was much more successfull on its 1st year could not do it, I guess the surprise would be if the Xone was capable to make it different! But I hope that MS fight for a minor parcel of the market.
Don't worry bro, you are now a joke account, too.Oh thank God!! I was really wondering WTF!!!
Well sales will be out next Wednesday..."Lolz guys look at this random street in JPN at 4 am in the morning. I don't see Ones being sold bomba amirite?!"
That's the best strategy they can have with this console in Japan.
Actually, the best one would be NOT launching the console in Japan at all... oh, well...
launching a system during summer. worst thing you could ever do.
poor ms, they should just avoid japan. its clearly a waste of money, if they are hardly accepting any foreign brands except apple.
sad to see, that the xbox and the best system of ms, the 360 clearly failed there.
i still hope, its going to change and they are able to change the market there a bit, but i guess home consoles are a thing of the past.... mobile is the new buzz word there...
I never said anything about buying shit because of anti-xenophobia or whatever you want to pass me off as.
If I limited myself to English made games only I wonder how lacking my entertainment would be.
The fact that gamers aren't even taking a look means they won't see if they are interested or not.
And its not like Wii U/PS4 is setting the world on fire, so I am sure that makes the decision for Japanese developers that much easier.

Its so contrived too. Just let it happen people the One isn't likely to be a success. You don't have to force the lolz with empty pictures with no context.

If you can't make fun of a mega corporation having some difficulties with a new product release, what can you make fun of?
I'd say it's a bit premature to count the Xbox One out right off the bat. We'll see how this pans out, only time will tell.
But not the one it needs right now.The saviour console gaming deserves.
So Xbone will win in Japan? Seems like bold if not silly prediction.I'd say it's a bit premature to count the Xbox One out right off the bat. We'll see how this pans out, only time will tell.
But he didn't say this at all. It can still do decent compared to ps4 although I have my doubts.So Xbone will win in Japan? Seems like bold if not silly prediction.
You bloody well implied it when bemoaning the lack of interest in anything that isn't sony/nintendo and following it up with this.
Are you honestly trying to say the two are unrelated?
Put it this way. If a company who treated your country like an afterthought released an expensive, underpowered, barely advertised product clearly aimed at a completely different demographic, would you give it a chance? It's just not desirable and the first party titles are largely dudebro centric. Forza is a terrible example because, love it or hate it, Playstation has Gran Turismo which is extremely similar. You may prefer one or the other, but unless you're a hardcore fan of either, it's unlikely to be the main factor in your decision.
Odd choice of wording. Comparatively, the PS4 is setting the world on fire. It's just not setting Japan on fire.
All aboard the hype cart
There's our Xbox One in Japan photo for the next decade. Awesome.
I just got back from Machida Yodobashi, where they were supposed to be having a midnight launch, I was planning to pick up another for work (got an imported US one at the moment) and store was being closed for the night, asked about Xbox launch and the nice lady basically said "come back tomorrow nobody came so we are closing"
Ouch.
I know people would prefer for the xbox launch to be as unsuccessful as possible but god damn.

Do you really think XBO is going to win? Tthe last two Xbox's haven't made any dent in Japan, I don't see what makes XBO any more likelier with even less support.
Is IGN really banning this pic? Why on earth would you do that.
I know if I was japanese and reading this I wouldnt feel very good about my choice to purchase.
"its all in good fun" people will say, but yeah..
Seriously?!
WAT?
You can't be serious.I'd say it's a bit premature to count the Xbox One out right off the bat. We'll see how this pans out, only time will tell.

Well I'm looking at it from a rational perspective.Anything is possible no matter how unlikely.
Honestly though, why do we even still follow sales in Japan? The console market has been dead there for almost a decade. Is it just for the LOL's?

It's these types of shots that makes me hate Sony.... and I don't hate Sony!! How is he even a CEO!? He sounds like someone in high school!!!

Not true. Ken Kutaragi took massive shots at the 360 at the launch of that Gen.
