Being an Xbox fan in Japan would be interesting and frustrating I suppose.

Relatively cheap. I liken it to being a Dreamcast owner in school (UK), although I think there were two of us.

Out of curiosity, I looked for the Xbox in a big electronics store, and found it in a teeny, tiny, little corner. I don't ever remember seeing any in the secondhand stores though.

At this point, I don't even think Microsoft is an Xbox fan. They may not make another traditional console.

If I was in their boots I'd go all in the Xbox app. Make it less crap and port all my titles to that.

Maybe even sneak in a new directx with stuff that makes it easier to port games to winderp™️

I could see them taking a bit of a backseat in the future. Possibly just an Xbox cloud gaming box, even. One that can cloud game on Xbox live and stream from your own pc.
