Enterbrain's president suggests the 360's chances of success rely on Mistwalker's efforts...
Hirokazu Hamamura is a man to be reckoned with when it comes to videogame culture throughout Japan. The president of Enterbrain, the publishers behind Famitsu, Hamamura-san has recently spoken about the Xbox 360 at a Tokyo seminar.
Suggesting whether or not the Xbox 360 will succeed in Japan is squarely on the shoulders of Mistwalker/Artoon's Blue Dragon, Hamamura-san claims that the title will have to shift at least one million copies if the format is to succeed and increase the 360's appeal to Japanese gamers.
Blue Dragon is scheduled for release across Japan by the end of 2006, putting the title up against the launch of the Playstation3; can Hironobu Sakaguchi's efforts be enough to tempt Japanese gamers towards the 360, only time will tell...

Blue Dragon is awesome. The combat system is amazing, cinematic and strategic - far better then FFXII. DBZ fans will love the art direction as well.

Im really looking forward to this game and its about time we had a game of this nature on the Xbox 360. Xbox 360 is certainly lacking quality Japanese games....

LMAO! That's expecting WAAAAY too much. That many 360s haven't even been sold in Japan since last year. "Gamers have been spoiled by MS in Japan" No they haven't, Sony and Nintendo spoils them, MS gives them one crappy game and thinks it can stop the 360 sinking ship.

gamers have been spoiled by micrsoft in japan, I wonder if Australia and NZ snubbed microsoft, would we get games made specifically fr us, and a heavily discounted console as well to go with it?

Interesting but the Japanese people demand more though, one game cannot satify the interest of many for prolong time. They need more.
