I wish Rare would make a Halo spin-off once. They may not be good at serious FPS, but they could make a groove like the classic Halo campaign that I loved with a sense of humor.

May their games be translated someday. Psychonauts 1 and 2 are not available in Japanese.

@NEStalgia
Last year's top 10 video game sales in Japan included games other than Pokémon.

1 - Pokemon Scarlet Violet
2 - Splatoon 3
3 - Pokemon Legends Arceus
4 - Kirby and the forgotten Land
5 - Nintendo Switch Sports
6 - Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
7 - Minecraft
8 - Mrio Party Super Stars
9 - Smash Bros Ultimate
10 - Elden Ring

Interestingly, Microsoft Japan has higher sales than Sony Interactive Entertainment. This is almost entirely due to sales of the Switch version of Minecraft.

Advertising in Japan equals zero. Yes, 90% of game stores do not have an Xbox section. (There may be a used Xbox 360 section)
Can it be reduced any further?

Halo Wars 2 was abandoned along with serious bugs and unimplemented maps.
I retired Halo Wars 2 with it.

Cannot play because it does not support Japanese.
Please, please support it.

I can't play because Japanese is not supported. I was looking forward to playing this very quirky game, but it's a shame.

Sonic Generations is the best to play now.
Adventure and Adventure 2 are also great, but the games are rough.
Sonic Unleashed is great for the daytime part. But most of the gameplay is painful.

In Japan, this title was released on Game Pass, then the Japanese language was removed as the domestic PS5 version was released a year later; after the PS5 version was released, Japanese updates were also available on Steam and Xbox.
This is a very unreasonable game title.

Considering that we have done almost nothing for the past year, it is a lot of updates no matter what.

343 Industries continues to be incompetent despite being given ample time and budget.
The top management should be changed. Now. How can Bonnie Ross continue to be in that position?

This game is only available in Japan on Nintendo Switch and PS4, with the Japanese language removed on Xbox and PC.

This is not "Everyone".
It is restricted to the Asian region, so Japanese players like me cannot play.

I would love to be able to select the Xbox One X version for my Smart Delivery compatible titles, being able to boot right off my USB HDD would be great.

Xbox clearly lacks these family games. They should release more Banjo, Pinata, Crash Bandicoot, etc.

Overwatch has also removed the Japanese language from the Xbox version only. As long as this problem continues, it will be difficult for Xbox to become popular in Japan.

I wish Diablo on Xbox and PC would support Japanese.

I would like you to start the service in Asia as well, even if it costs a little more for shipping.

Really wanted to see a groundbreaking Xbox One Kinect game. They are clearly underrated.

Unless Bonnie Ross and Kiki Wolfkill are gone, Halo's current situation will not change.

His knowledge seems to stop in 2004.
If we are talking about the Japanese gaming industry, we should know that some Western games such as Apex Legends and OverWatch are growing in popularity.

There is nothing wrong with making alterations from the original work. It is a new show.
However, there are too many changes that make no sense and are not respectful.

Please someone save 343 Industries and Halo.

I think I should be able to choose a brute as well.

All 343 Industries executives should be fired. They are not doing a decent job while being given the right to have one of the most famous games at their disposal.

There are some great parts of Halo now, but I have to wonder if this is the extent of it, given the huge budget given to them.

I am interested in the Hero Shooter, even if it is an event.
I do not like the current Halo which is full of Spartans. I want to enjoy diverse aliens.

This game will not be released on Xbox in Japan.

I am so glad that Microsoft has turned its attention to Japan again.
The Xbox One was very miserable.

343 Industries does not appear to have good board members.

Halo Infinite was a good game at launch. But this is a case of continuous updates.

They claim to be a live game, yet we are forced to play a game that has remained largely the same since launch.

There are many things in this game that only the Japanese can understand. Therefore, a low metascore may not be a correct evaluation.

I really enjoyed the first month.
343 Industries Thanks for your hard work. I can't wait for another company to take over.

I'm glad to see the Xbox growing in Japan. At this rate, I'd like to see games like State of Decay 2 and Psychonauts translated into Japanese.

In Japan, there is a problem that for some reason Square Enix's Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts were not included in the Game Pass. (Interestingly, PS Now has them.)

I'd like to see more distribution sites support YouTube Live, NicoNico, mildom, Restream.io.

People who watch the TV show will think of the actor when they think of the face of Master Chief.
I think this is a very terrible decision.

I would like the option to disable smart delivery. It's a great feature, but I don't want to keep games on internal storage that I only play occasionally. I want to be able to run games on USB storage as well.

I want to turn off quick resume in games that have glitches.
It would also be nice if there was an option to disable smart delivery. I want to put my games on USB storage.

343 Industries only cares about eSports players. As a result, the number of players is decreasing.

For some reason, this game doesn't come in Japanese on PC and Xbox. Hopefully this will be fixed when it comes to Microsoft.

@Banjo- Curiously, the Final Fantasy series, which has recently been removed from the Japanese Xbox Game Pass, is now available on PS Now. Why on earth is this, Square Enix?

I played the Switch version, but I couldn't play it properly because the C button has been replaced by the right stick.
I am reminded of how well the port of the Xbox version was done.

This is quite an improvement over the dark days of the Xbox One, as Xbox Game Studios games are now translated with subtitles.

However, many games on Game Pass must also be available in English only. There are still some issues, such as Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts being excluded from Game Pass in Japan.

I didn't want them to abandon Kinect.

The closure of Ensemble Studios was also a terrible choice. It's clear from the fact that they are now working on Age of Empires.

Maybe there's too little localization of the language and not enough people were able to vote.

I'd rather have multitasking by snap back than this.

It is silly to repeat matchmaking over and over again for a challenge. Please don't make game mode specific challenges.

No matter how great Psychonauts 2 is, there are still many countries where you can't play it because of the lack of language support.

Please make Sega's many Xbox exclusive titles compatible.

Considering that Halo Infinite is costing an extraordinary amount of money to develop, I think it's a huge loss even with the current business model.
