To get an idea of what's ailing the Xbox 360 in Japan, look around the Internet and check out the video game blogs.

The Xbox-bashing ranges from the machine's perceived uninspiring design to the overall scarcity of enticing must-have game titles to date. It's hardly the sort of word-of-mouth buzz the software titan would have hoped for some four months after releasing its new, souped-up game machine amid great fanfare in Japan.
