Ahead of the highly anticipated launch of Microsoft's Xbox in Japan next month, the U.S. software giant is poised to team up with the makers of some of the country's leading game software to produce titles for the game machine. A deal with Enix and Square could give a major boost to Xbox sales in Japan, where the two companies produce some of the leading game software titles such as "Dragon Quest" and "Final Fantasy." Microsoft, which is scheduled to roll out the game console in Japan on February 22 with a 34,800 yen ($263) price tag, is pinning its hopes on the Internet capabilities of its Xbox game machine and has been looking for partners to develop Internet games for the console. Enix, the maker of the Dragon Quest game software, has sold 20.84 million units worldwide, while Square has sold 36.82 million units of its blockbuster Final Fantasy game series. | ||
