It should work so long as the Xbox uses a two prong plug. And I don't forsee any problems except for the fact that the ginormous size of the Xbox might put you over your weight limit!

I have mine here. Works with no problems. Great for DVDs from the US too. I can get some DVD that are still in theaters here or don't come out at all.

Xbox should work as long as it has electricity. It's software that would cause the problem but even that's not an issue because Japanese games are in NTSC format...same as our tvs in north america (I assume you're from N. America). If your xbox is modded like mine is it would even play DVDs and games from any region.
