"DOA XBV dans le most wanted charts de Famitsu
A défaut de voir des titres Xbox dans le classement des meilleurs ventes de jeux au Japon, le magazine Famitsu publie réguliÃ*rement une liste des jeux les plus attendus par les joueurs nippons. Ce listing permet de dégager les tendances des ventes de gros hits. Pour la 1Ã*re fois depuis plusieurs mois, un jeu Xbox arrive à se classer dans les dix premiers. Il s'agit du trÃ*s sulfureux DOA Xtreme Beach Volleyball qui entre à la 9iÃ*me place, coincé entre un Sakura Taisen (Sega/PS2) à la 10iÃ*me place et FF Tactics (Square/GBA) en 8iÃ*me position. Ou se cache donc Panzer Dragoon Orta ?"

And here is a related snippet direct from this month's issue of OXM:
OXM "XBOX IN JAPAN" Excerpt
"Xbox Japan wants to sell out 500,000 XBOX systems in total in the year end sales battle...
..Microsoft will hold a lot of user events in big cities, broadcast TV commercials with some famous Japanese Actors, and sell XBOX system campaign with free DVD Playable Kit.
..About game software, Microsoft has decided the great seven titles, and pushes them strongly in promotion. The great seven games are Dead or Alive: Extreme Volleyball, Panzer Dragoon Orta, Dead to Rights, Crimson Sea, Shin Megami Tensei (Atlas), OTOGI, and Blinx. According to my magazine, the top game of readers want to buy is.. DOAX!. The 2nd is Ninja Gaiden, and the 3rd is HALO 2! The DOA:X is really popular. I guess it will sell out 100,000 copies, however now in Japn the XBOX gamers are only 200,000 people. --Koji Aizawa (Editor in Chief for FAMITSU XBOX"
(Let me know if this is old news)
