I think the I-Pod has been the only foreign tech to penetrate, and that's because Japan hasn't really come up with a viable competitor.
And i absolutely believe that the 360 will never do well in Japan.
I am dead in japanese plus#
So i don't care, plus i still have 2 years of warranty left. I love my 360, and it has RROD'd on me ounce, but i'm now confident that it won't again, and i leave it on until the auto shut-off turns it off. The 360 was doing poorly before the RROD started taking shape. So let's loose the whole reliability excuse. Their country has too much self love to ever let a foreign entity in. Japanese developers would be pressured to stay away. Even if some European based company came out with a super console with 100% reliability. No foreign game console will penetrate the japanese market. It will never happen, and i feel 100% comfortable saying that. If they were to ever loose ground in their own home country, they would loose face. The fact is Japanese people are brand loyal, and hold a very huge bias against a foreign company encroaching on their famed territory. Let's not forget the exploding battery debacle. TV's (and i used to work at Circuit City, so don't try to tell me otherwise). Sony doesn't even have a squeaky clean track record with their other tech. "Japanese people like reliable products". Let's not even forget that the PS1 had to be put on it's side or completely upside down in order to play. For goodness sake, there was a Class Action Lawsuit. When we all were having our horrible hardware problems with the PS2, do you really think that they weren't suffering the same thing.
That's it, that sums up the whole argument. You really are delusional if you think that. What are you talking about, do you really think that if the 360 was more reliable, that it would have sold better.
