Microsoft has to get its foot in the door in Japan at some point this generation if they want future consoles of theirs to really succeed. Spending lots of money to secure popular Japenese software fanchises (Dragon Quest, Xenosaga, any other popular Japenese RPG series) as exclusives may be an answer. They certainly have their work cut out for them, but throwing in the towell would be a collosal waste of all the time and effort they've put into the XBox in Japan so far, as well as the fact that it would diminish the chances of their future system(s) (XBox 2?) to ultimately succeed.
