Why did Xbox fail in Japan?
American company
>>12918451no games
>>12918452>American companyThe iPhone is even more popular in Japan than in America
>>12918459True, but Japan has no real answer to Apple in the same way as the PlayStation compared to Xbox.
>>12918459>>12918464>True, but Japan has no real answer to Applethey have Samsung you retards
>>12918467>Samsung >Japanese???
>>12918467Samsung is Korean, retard, and Japs hate Koreans
>>12918459Source?
>>12918468>>12918469SK is discount Japanit's like America's Canada, take Bioware for example it was Canadian but everyone teats talks about their games (BG, Kotor...) as if they are American games similary everyone (except pedantic fags) thinks Samsung is Japanese
>>12918479>everyone (except pedantic fags) and people who have the remotest idea what sounds like a Japanese name
>>12918479lol cope. Even if Samsung was Japanese, they don’t design their own OS like Apple does. They use shitty jeetdroid.
>>12918479>SK is discount JapanNot anymore. Outside of Nintendo, turbo normgroids don't care about Japan and consume Korean media like Squid GameNo one cares about Jpop either, Kpop is way more popularIn fact one of the reasons Japan hates Korea right now is because Korea stole their international spotlight
>>12918493maybe this was true five years ago but no one cares about gookX anymore
>>12918480>sounds like a Japanese namestop being pedanticSamsung sounds like Ching Chong but it's not chinese and no one cares>>12918485IOS is the Linux of mobiles OS, only trannies and contrarians use itnormal people use Android/Windows>turbo normgroids don't care about Japanoh yeah normies totally never watch japanese tranime anymore they now consume Korean slop like Squid Game and..... eh other famous Korean works!!!they totally stopped playing japanese vidya and switched to Korean games such as Stellar Blade, Crimson Desert and the list goes on (it doesn't)lmao, Korean games are trash even their MMO scene which once upon a time the dominated it's global market during the 00's is now dead and mogged by Japan>No one cares about Jpop either, Kpop is way more popularmeh, only women listen to Kslop and even so it's dying in popularity, the 10's were the peak of Kslop and it's been a downhill since then
>>12918523Stop using WhatsApp. It’s for the poors.
>>12918493Not really, SK media hasn't left anywhere near the same longstanding cultural impact that Japan, Hong Kong or China has when it comes to cinema. And in terms of vidya its even less, they basically have Maplestory, gachas and that's it. And before then it was basically SEGA or Nintendo bootlegs.
>implying it didnt fail everywhere
>>12918523i'm not pedantic, if i made 3 racist imitations of asians you could easily tell which one is japanese:ching chong wing wonghyueungjeong geungtakamakachikitaka
>>12918451The Japanese already take their lives ultra seriously. Why would you be ultra serious in your fun? They wisely partition their work and fun and let the fun be as much fun as they care to have.
>>12918568>ching chong wing wong>hyueungjeong geung>takamakachikitakathey all sound chinky and that's what everyone thinksnext thing you'll be lecturing me about how Brazilians are not speaking Mexican
>>12918523>normal people use Android/Windowslmfao no
>>12918451Because they games were shit.
>>12918467
Because they do not play white piggu geemus!
They never tried to get a japanese market after the early 360 years
>>12918451There were many factors working against the Xbox there at the time. One of which was the audience at the time had smaller homes, so the large system took up too much space. Japanese audiences tended to prefer escaping from the small apartments which was why ad-hoc networks and small portable devices were preferred for the core audience's habits. The Xbox was just too big for home, but it was much more successful when volume is less of an issue as it was in arcades in the form of Chihiro hardware. So it was a misaligned target audience where Microsoft should have focused on being the arcade.
>>12918451>>12918452This. Japanese are very ethnocentric.Also, the Xbox was huge, and took up way too much space for a tiny Japanese apartment.
>>12918459Bogus comparison considering one is a console from 2001 (Japan already has PS2 and Gamecube) and the other is a smartphone from 2007 (Apple one upped sony).>>12918479Japanese people hate South Korea like crazy, it's only slightly changed now because kpop and other Korean shit is blowing the fuck up everywhere. No one is thinking Samsung is Japanese, at best they think it's another chink shit company, so basically like every Asian brand regardless of whether China is involved or not.
>>12919654>Japanese people hate South Korea like crazy,irrelevant and does not change the fact SK is discount Japanlike the war Ukraine does not change the fact it's discount Russia>at best they think it's another chink shit companyno one ever thinks that, chink shit is globally known for low quality cheap bootleg slop, not even a nigger in the slums of Wakanda thinks the Samsung phone he bought with a loan he'll spend 20 years to pay is chinky, it's manufactured in chink factories but the brand of Samsung itself is a quality brand acknowledged by everyone, chink phone brands like Lenovo are ridiculed and any poorfag buying one is righfully mocked it's the same with cars everyone respects the brand of Toyota and will gladly pay exta to accquire a Toyota car but they will roll their eyes at cheap chinky brandseven in games it's the same, all people eat up Japanese games like Elden Ring but chink slop like that monkey game many people (non-chinks) ignored it with some refusing to buy it just because it's chinese (which is associated with low quality slop)
>>12918451>XboxX means no no
>>12919886SK has a higher GDP per capita and higher average IQ than Japan. Weebs suck Jap dick for free and run 24/7 JIDF for them
>>12919951>SK has a higher GDP per capitairrelevant shit, even meme tier turd world shitholes like Malta and Cyprus also have higher GoyDP per capita than Japan AND SK>higher average IQ>Japan IQ: 106.30>SK IQ: 106.97WOWZERS!!! a day and night difference! lolIQ is a fraud btw
>>12920007cope
>>12919886>no one ever thinks thatMost turbo normalfags think just about all of Asia is China, or diet China, they don't know the difference between Japanese shit, Chinese shit, Korean shit, etc, they just think "Fuck it, it's all basically China".
>>12920236based boomers.
>>12918459Steve Jobs was a huge weeb who adored Zen Buddhism and Sony’s sleek product design. Apple products are perfectly compatible with Japanese design sensibilities, compared to Microsoft and its awkward half-assed overtly American products.
>>12920281>Apple products are perfectly compatible with Japanese design sensibilitiesSo, obnoxious, pretentious, with a bunch of style over substance?
>>12919947Yup. This is why X-Men children of the atom famously bombed in Japan and Capcom had to de-emphasize the X-Men characters in the sequels changing it to "Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter".
>>12920447doesnt matter. tons of things have X in the name. f zero x, smash bros is called smash X or some shit. captain america is just cooler
