Hardware Does anyone know a good site I can get a Japanese Xbox One?

Just remember that if you get a Japanese Xbox One for region A blu-ray , some Sentai filmworks discs will not play as they are country code locked to U.S. and Canada region A players.

The reason Sentai implemented country code detection was to block the Japanese from watching any of their anime releases as importing anime from the U.S. is far cheaper than buying it in Japan and the anime industry has a fear of profit losses from reverse importation (buying a product of your country from another country rather than buying local).

If you are not into watching any sort of anime off disc, this will probably not affect you at all as of now but country codes could end up being used later on with other content thus preventing you from watching it.

Oh I didn't know about country codes. I've never heard of Sentai anyway so that probably wouldn't affect me. My Transformers Prime Blu Rays work fine.

Sentai is the second of the big 2 anime distributors in the U.S., FUNimation being the first.
