Dang if only starfield was out now . Xbox series would of stayed ahead of the 360 or at least kept up. I think halo 3 was coming out during this time frame

You really think Starfield is going to move the needle that much in Japan? There's a cult following for western-style RPGs there, but I didn't think they were mass market sellers.

I’m basing this on sales of other best hit titles like fallout 4 ,elder scrolls,. Elder scrolls did outsell halo 3

Fair enough then. You could well be right! It might be a "killer app" for Game Pass in Asia, actually. If you're curious about the game you don't need to buy the game and the console, you could buy the Series S and a month of Game Pass, and see how it goes. A very low barrier to entry.

No need I got a gaming rig so I use the gamepass for pc. But with that new price drop I may just buy a series s .250$ Definitely a low entry point

By "you" I didn't mean "y2jarmyofficial", the "you" in question was a random person in Japan curious about Starfield. :)

I’m going to say it will help but no starfield won’t make a huge impact with just Japan. I’m basing this on elder scrolls and fallout 4 sales in Japan for ps3/ps4 at the time 75k for elder scrolls in 2011 and over 120k for fallout 4 debut .

The 360 just postpone the inevitable at this point ..
The XBSX will come as a storm and blast through it in the next months and quorters.
As we already saw, when there is a stock XBSX don't have trouble to reach 50k monthly and I bet even more.
