Why does the Xbox brand not do well in Japan?

Compared to Sony and Nintendo, xbox consoles do not sell very well over there why?

Japanese people are racists.

Nippon is an ethnostate. They literally give less than a fuck about Amerikan products. Plus Halo, Gears & Forza are all shit.

Forza is better than GranTurismo, a game Japan likes for some reason.

Obviously a big deal to all 17 people who actually play racing games

They're too American for Japs' tastes.

Aside from it being American, all Xbox models are too large by Japanese standards. Also handhelds are way more popular than consoles in Japan, Switch has already outsold PS4 in Japan.

For the same reason that xbox does better in the US than it does in any other country - they buy domestic.

The better question would be, who the fucks buys a NipStation or a Chinktendo SwHIT?

Aren’t you proud to be American and buy American consoles?

Tell me nips have taste in software. What is the best selling Xbox franchise in the land of the rising sun?

Xbox franchises are also pretty bloody and gory, and the Japs hate blood and gore as much as Americans hate tits and bare skin.

MS was like 10 years late to a genre Polyphony made mainstream, why should people even give an imitation a try

At least they have Minecraft selling like crazy over there.

How the fuck does Japan like Minecraft so much

But chink games are better

Xbox is fucking garbage

for the same reason playstation sells like shit there. they only care about mobile games. the switch has outsold the ps4 which was on the market for 6 years, in only 2 years.

Japs don't buy foreign consoles

Xbox doesn't sell ANYWHERE outside of America.

This

autism

it outsold the wii in the UK

XBOX IS A GOD TO ME

It's because they already produce more soul consoles.
E.g. no one wants starbucks in Italy since there is actual coffee rather than that cup of piss

360 only had some semblance of success there because MS paid for exclusives, paid for timed exclusives, and schmups. They are no longer doing that and schmups are hitting xbone either so their market collapsed.
This might sound counterintuitive but even with how shitty xbone sold in Japan, MS probably made more money on xbone than on 360 there.

If I remember right X means death in Japan so it's a big black gaijin console called the Deathbox

It is and has always been a trash console with literally ZERO games anyone wants apart from the few Japanese games whose exclusivity was paid for by MS.

To even call it a "brand" would be vastly overselling it. The Xbox logo is a brand of failure.

what about UK (and Germany a bit)?

"X" is literally the letter for rejection or failure in Japan. It doesn't have the edgy "cool" connotation that it has in america.

>American

Japs are very xenophobic and prefer supporting local tech corporations, which is a good thing for them.
There are notable exceptions. Apple iPhones sell extremely well in Japan

The only games xbox has is gears, forza and halo and they all fucking suck, that's why.
>They literally give less than a fuck about Amerikan products
Everyone and their dog has an iphone over there tho.

japan has taste.

The only "xbox* games or however you wanna call them that have/had a interest in japan was nothing more then the forza series (especially the horizon ones) and bungie era halo and i can "confirm" this because i used to had a japanese friend that played with them before and later in his life he killed himself a couple years ago from now, i still miss this guy
