I think they could have a lot of success if they invested in a big title that was in a popular genre in Japan (like they did on the 360 with Blue Dragon, et al), and did a bundle of that game with the Series S. Maybe include several months of Game Pass too, after getting some new popular-in-Japan content added to Game Pass. That might really move the needle for them in Japan.

Why would they be depressing? They're the strongest launch a generation of Xbox has had yet. And their business model has moved past being Xbox-focused to include PC, mobile, etc.
