From Kotaku:
This is the list of the top 50 selling XBox 360 games in Japan since it's launch there:
http://kotaku.com/338099/xbox-360-games-dont-sell-in-japan
There have only been just over 1.8 million XBox 360 games TOTAL sold in Japan. CoD 4 has sold more than that in America by itself.
And it's not like Microsoft has not tried this generation. They have gotten exclusivity to popular games like Katamari and Ace Combat that were Playstation staples, worked with the former FF creator's new studio, Mistwalker, to put out 2 exclusive JRPG's, and Square Enix is making two JRPG's for the 360 also.
So my question is not only with Microsoft, but any North American hardware or software (Mass Effect, Oblivion, GTA, etc.) ever successfully sell in Japan?
