GAMING NEWSJapanese Retailers Phasing out the Xbox 360?Posted on Thursday, August 18 @ 08:23:06 Eastern by Anthony Severino
![]() Retailers in Japan are beginning to cut the Xbox 360 from their storefronts and have started to put remaining stock in bargain bins to flush leftover inventory quickly, a new report says. The new report comes from Edge Magazine: Despite its dominance in the US, the Xbox 360 has struggled in Japan since it was released in 2005. Week over week, the Xbox 360 barely manages to sell as much as one tenth of the PlayStation 3. More from the Game Revolution Network Comments

Anyways, for the most part I agree with you. The 360 simply did not have enough games that would appeal to the Japanese market. I mean, look when Tales of Vesperia was exclusive for the 360 for a year. Sales of 360's jumped.
