Microsoft Admits Japanese Xbox 360 Launch Was

Summary: Microsoft Japanese boss speaks frankly about the Xbox 360's disappointing Japanese release.
Full:
"[The Xbox 360 Japanese launch] was a lot more difficult than we had imagined."
That's the official word on the Japanese Xbox 360 from Microsoft Japan Xbox Operations Chief Yoshihiro Maruyama, who recently spoke to Japanese gaming bible Famitsu (as translated by GameSpot).
Maruyama put much of the blame on confusion about the HD capabilities of the Xbox 360, as well as the delay of key launch titles such as Dead or Alive 4.
Just how bad was the Xbox 360 Japanese launch? Bad enough to make the first Xbox launch--which failed miserably in Japan--now almost look solid in comparison.
