I don't think any of them could do it.

Thier internal development houses are in US.. that means the US version of everything comes first. While the third party support rests in Japan. US could just get a more first party launch with 3rd party games later, while japan could have more of a third party launch with the 1st party US games later.
All that with get you is a half-ass lineup in 2 regions, instead of a great launch in 2 regions.

Nintendo and Sony don't have this luxury... they develop everything in Japan to start then port it to america... that's why Japan can always get the consoles first. MS could work both sides of the time line at the same time.
Not everything. Wave Race, 1080, Eternal Darkness, and Metroid Prime are all North American-made games.

Japan first? That would be a stupid move... who thinks Xbox 2 will do good in Japan anyway?
That's the reasoning behind Japan first.
