Japan Xbox One prices confirmed

4.5
Microsoft has finally officially confirmed Xbox One launch prices for games within Japan. While the Xbox One's predecessor had a lackluster reception in the country it appears Microsoft is hoping to avoid a repeat of last gen by offering launch bundles both with and without Kinect. Japan will be graced with the Xbox One formal launch on September 4th with the Kinect bundle for 49,980 yen (£291/$490) while a package without sensor will run consumers 39,980 yen (£233/$392).

YhCHKN Why are they not released in Japan anyway?
Always thought they had them!

50K Yen, not bad!


I thought the same thing. I thought Japan would be one of the first to get the consoles. And the price is a little less than it is here!

DryRice WTF like 40,000 haha why is there currency so bad


Maybe it's your currency that is bad?


not sure about anyone else but the fact per payslip you could see a fairly large number deposoited into your bank instead of say a few thousand at the end of the month would be more enjoyable i reckon.

also a currency like yen allows more market price play and stuff such as that.

Whey Seems like a lot saying nearly 50,000 yen, however that is just 291 GBP.
Anyhow, this price seems fairly reasonable considering here in the UK the console with the sensor it 300 pounds.


It's 400 in the UK, not 300. 109 cheaper in Japan.
