In the case of Rakuten it currently looks like a total disaster, the global Rakuten site is only a tad bit less ugly than the japanese one and machine translated, rendering it more or less useless. I'm sure Amazon.co.jp wouldn't fare well in Japan either if they were doing such a half-assed job as the english Rakuten site.
