Today Microsoft held a pre-Tokyo Game Show “Press Round Table” at an hotel in Tokyo with reporters from the major Japanese websites and magazines to introduce the Xbox One to the local press, and Corporate Vice President Phil Spencer, together with Senior Director of Product Management and Planning Albert Penello and Microsoft Japan’s General Manager of Interactive Entertainment Business Takashi Sensui brought along the very first production Xbox One (this one, that was shown a few days ago by Larry “Major Nelson” Hyrb on Twitter) just off the assembly line.

I guess that’s a good consolation prize, considering that they called all those journos out basically to tell them “Sorry, but we aren’t telling you to the Xbox One’s Japanese release date just yet, but hey, have some more 360 for now!”
