Popular geek idol Shoko Nakagawa is a singer, a model, TV personality, co-host of kiddy morning show Pokémon Sunday and now an Xbox 360 owner.
Earlier this week, she posted on her blog that she has purchased an Xbox 360 and a couple games (Street Fighter IV, Resident Evil 5, Tales of Vesperia and Star Ocean 4). She then posted her Avatar as well as her LIVE name, shokommts.
Later that same day, she blogged:

Wow, you think? We're shocked.
