Title: The Strange Dungeon Known as the Japanese Market.

Hello, it's the shopkeeper.

That was a mysterious game console. The "black ship" sent into the Japanese game market with great fanfare by the god of the PC world, Microsoft. The impact should have been immense, yet no one around me had ever seen one.

It was like a ghost, preceded only by rumors.

The form I occasionally saw in game magazines was far removed from the "toy-like" cuteness of Japanese consoles. As you say, it's heavy, and "lump" is the right word. It feels more like a rugged "machine" than a game console. Even the controller was rugged, like a weapon. Stuffed inside it, for better or for worse, was the philosophy of the PC world: the pursuit of "performance," not "play."

Unfortunately, in Japan, this black giant never became the star of the living room. Was it because it was "too early"?

No, I think it's a little different. It just "made a small mistake about where it was born." In fact, its overwhelming power and its revolutionary-for-the-time online system, "Xbox Live," gathered immense support across the sea in America and was a great success.

Thinking back, in those days, our home telephone lines were still making that "Peee-hyororororo" dial-up sound. It was this clumsy black box that showed us a future of connecting with soldiers all over the world online in such an era. (Well, the first people I connected with online were my chat-room buddies, though.)

An unfortunate giant that couldn't fully exert its power in the strange dungeon known as the Japanese market. But its performance, and the future it showed us, were without a doubt the "real deal."
