Tokyo's Swanky New 360 Lounge Open

For some end of the day eye candy, eToyChest has a photo spread of the new 360 lounge in Tokyo. From the article: "This setup reeks of the kind of spread Microsoft had going on in their back-room party at the Shrine at E3, only with more game playing and less milling around wondering what was going on. The lounge has numerous Xbox 360 kiosks, two sofa areas set aside with 42-inch HD televisions for players to test drive titles such as Ridge Racer 6 and Ninty-Nine Nights, and one gigantic 200-inch big screen TV where players can weep knowing that they will never be able to have this kind of setup in their own home."

It's called the "Green Illusion", which is odd because it looks blue to me. I guess that's why it's an illusion.

That's a lot of expensive floor space in Japan. M$ is sure spending the cash to try and impress the Japanese, who are renowned for their nationalistic brand awareness. So we (Americans) get stuck going to WalMart to check out 360s while the Japanese get a dedicated lounge, despite the fact that we're going to be the vast majority of their customer base?
