However, I just used all my remaining money on a japanese white Saturn... well, that's pretty good too, I guess. I wish I could import a japanese 360, if only necause of all those shmups.

I feel the biggest part is Xenophobia. There is really no excuse, otherwise. Sadly, the hardcore niche "gamer-elite" in Japan can't keep this system afloat alone. Us importers are probably half of their sales sometimes. >_> In my own sick, twisted little world in my head I judge a systems success based on MY preferences. =) So 360 has been quite successful concerning their Japanese market if only because I like the games that have been coming out over there in my head [obviously not the reality though].

I watch the new Inside Xbox videos every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, & Sunday. They're doing a great job of interviewing creators, demoing and introducing new games. Hikari-chan was so cute playing Forza 3 and Bayonetta (BTW, the 360 demo had a different stage, it generally looked crisper and the animation seems to be faster, I played it better w/ the 360 controller too). I've said it time and again, Sony's Christina Lee from Pulse seems so boring reading from a teleprompter, while Hikari-chan and Uchizawa-san genuinely seem to enjoy and actually play games. I dunno, to me I just really like the sense of community from Xbox Live, I was surprised there are still Jpn players playing Wartech Senko no Ronde the other day.<br><br>Since my Jpn 360 was just fixed and shipped back to me from Texas, I have no immediate need of another Jpn 360.
