Size, we are told is not everything, but when you are selling things to Japanese who live in tiny apartments, keeping the size down counts a lot towards success. That seemed to be the message from hundreds of hardcore Japanese gamers who had their first chance to put long-awaited Microsoft Corp.'s Xbox through its paces over the weekend at the Tokyo Game Show 2001 before it goes on sale here next February.Many of those of the estimated 150,000 visitors over the three day event which ended Sunday who queued up to try out the new video console gave it high marks for graphics and its feel, while voicing reservations over its large size and the complexity of the controls. "The machine is a little big, so I have nowhere to put it," said Yuzuru Hosono, 22, who is typical of the core market for computer games -- young urban males living alone in a single room or with a small bedroom in the family home. | ||
