Japanese Press on the Xbox.

Booyaka!

Didn\' expect this... MS had a pretty good presence at TGS.

Quite a few complaints about the size, though... Its not that big. C\'mon, people... -_-;

Cool.............thats great news.  I can\'t wait to pick up my xbox come november.:thepimp: :thepimp: :thepimp:

Dang Nu Gundam.  Why did you have to post that link?  Every time I go over to the teamxbox forums I hate the Xbox more and more.  I want the Xbox, but Xbox fanboys make me hate it.  Oh well.  It\'s good news.

I don\'t buy the validity of the size comments.  If that were such a pressing issue like it wants you to believe, every Japanese gamer would own two or three Gamecubes by now...

But I will say the Xbox controller is awful.

Nice logic there!


I was kinda wondering how the japanese were going to react to Xbox at TGS, and well according to Fajmitsu monthly Genama Onimusha is the most wanted game over there. So, it looks like Xbox isn\'t going to fail after all.:fro:

Does anyone know when Onimusha 2 is coming out?  Because if it comes out around the same time as the Xbox Onimusha, the Xbox version won\'t seem so appealing.  Why would they want a revamped port when they can get a whole new thing?

Also, VF4 (Japanese\'s most loved fighting game) is coming out right before the Xbox comes out.  Will they want an Xbox and DOA3 after that?  I want to believe that the Japanese love the Xbox now, but I\'m still a bit skeptical.

Yes, whether or not the Xbox fails rests in the hand of a single game.  Now there\'s some nice logic.

DOA2 sold like 400,000 some copies between the two consoles, am I correct? Isn\'t that about what TTT sold on launch? I think the series is more popular than we think.

I am sure VF4 will sell heaps more, but it isn\'t like the fans in Japan are gonna disregard it because it\'s on another system. If I didn\'t have a PS2, you better be amn sure I would get one when it came out, even in my anti-PS2 days.

Man, must you dog me everytime you get a chance. There are several other games, I was just pointing out that this one is one of the most wanted, according to Fajamitsu(sp) magaginze, which is based in japan.

btw, I can\'t provide a link, because its in japanese, I\'d have to get a translator, unless you have one, and want a link, if i can find it anyone.
