Only 12 Japanese Xbox Games on the 360

Posted by David as Gadzooki News, Games

It looks like Japan is not getting any love from Microsoft. I am very surprised because I thought they were really going to target the Asian market with this console release to steal some of Sony’s thunder, but it as much as they will enjoy the console, I think they might be frustrated as they will only be able to play twelve Xbox games on their Xbox 360.

That list includes:

Crimson Skies
Fable
Forza Motorsport
Grand Theft Auto Double Pack
Halo
Halo 2
Halo 2 Map pack
Jade Empire
Ninja Gaiden
Ninja Gaiden Black
Rainbox Six 3
The Simpsons Hit and Run

It is said that they will be adding to that list soon, but it looks like the North American titles are the priority for backwards compatibility.

Dubbed the Playstation Move, the advanced motion controls on this baby makes it supposedly more accurate than that other motion controller from that little-known console from [...]
