Title: if you want jap support get PS2 and or GCN
Post by: Nplayer-2 on March 06, 2001, 11:58:39 PM

I am pretty sure that now everyone knows every japanese developer thinks xbox will fail and they will not waste their time with said console....

This is good news for PS2 owners(i will not meantion GCN much because this is a PS2 forum)....many xbox zealots who dwell with-in fanboy site such as msxbox.com or planetxbox come here and tell us we will loose our japanese support to the mighty xbox ....

xbox is dead in japan...

1)HUGE size which the japanes do not like
2)NO japanese support what so ever
3)IF any jap games show up on it..they will be on the smaller and cheaper PS2 first..

i will go on record and say xbox will BOMB big time in japan and every where eles...sorry but THEY CANNOT SURVIVE WITH-OUT JAP SUPPORT ANY WHERE...

Well i disagree somewhat. If Xbox can show off some unique games and grab a solid footing in the US it still can grab some japanese marketshare. It\'ll be aslow process but if Xbox prooves it will stick till 2005 I see a few Japanese developers jumping on with games. There all signed up they just haven\'t fully commited.

But to tell you the truth, If Xbox can show off some cool games that are all European and American flavor then thats exactly what I\'m looking for from Xbox. Some top PC developers doing there best to max out familiar hardware.
Its own feel, and a distictly different flavor of its own cool games.

Malice Munch\'s and Halo all have my interest. Gamestock is later this week and a few more Xbox games will be shown. Preliminary reports from some mags are saying some positive things

SO I\'ll just judge Xbox then....
