Xbox One Japan boss stands down as weekly sales drop to just 776

Xbox Japan head Takashi Sensui resigned this week as Microsoft’s newest console fell to a sales low in the home of its big gaming rivals, Nintendo and Sony.

Xbox One launched in Japan back in September and sold just 23,562 units in its first week, which looked pretty bad compared to week one sales of over 300,000 for both PlayStation 4 and Wii U. Things have gotten worse since, though, and Xbox One only sold 776 units last week, according to analytics firm Media Create. It’s a sign of the continuing disconnect between Microsoft and Japanese gamers that caused the Xbox 360 to fail there previously.
