GamesRadar is reporting that two more Japanese legends have made the move to Xbox 360. Just days after Hironobu Sakaguchi stunned the gaming world with his commitment to the next Xbox, Yoshiki Okamoto (Street Fighter, Sega Rally, Resident Evil) and Tetsuya Mizuguchi (Space Channel 5, Lumines) put in their bet.
One thing all these developments prove is that Microsoft will do its damndest to get the Japanese market this time
around. The Xbox console was a failure by almost every standard in Japan, so aggressive moves are to be expected. Let's
just hope they don't try to buy Nintendo.

Are these exclusive deals? I mean sure the game might turn out to be exclusive but they will still develop games for other systems right?
Other than the fact that MS is looking like they are going to make a serious run at the Japanese market, I fail to see how this is big news. Someone care to enlighten me?

The 2 RPG's from Final Fantasy Creator Hironobu Sakaguchi are exclusive deals, don't know about these games they are making since nothing was anncouned on what kind of games they are, I'm guessing they will be exclusive.
