The Playstation 2 and Playstation 3 aren't significantly smaller than the Xbox or Xbox 360. Nintendo's systems have generally been smaller, though.
The 360 is small (but that didn't go in without taking its toll... mainly the RROD ), but the original Xbox was huge. I do believe the main problem Japanese people had with the design was the (absurdly huge) controller, though.

I'm still amazed at how much the console industry owes to the original PSX gamepad. Basically everything after the hideous Dreamcast, Xbox and Gamecube gamepads went back to the original Dualshock design, even the traditional Wii controller.
