Why have the Germans break their treaty with Japan? If I remember correctly, the Rome-Berlin-Tokyo Axis was a pact for mutual defense: any attack on one country would cause the other countries to declare war on the attacker. Since Japan attacked the United States, Germany would not be technically bound to assist. It was Hitler's decision to declare war on America, not the other way around. (Japan didn't declare war on Russia when Germany attacked it, for instance.)
Also, if the campaign went so well in Russia, Japan might've also started invading Russia from the east.
And a weakened Britain might also mean Japan would try to seize India, or Australia.
I'm just having problems seeing the Pacific war turn out so similar to how it happened in reality with so many changes in Europe.The strategically impaired,

Well, first off, remember, this is a Germany without Hitler.
Secondly, Rommel could have, being the smart general he is, decided that Germany didn't need to have a belligerent partner in the Pacific, a partner who was showing signs of taking on the big neighborhood kid.
Also, Japan didn't have an army that could really take on the Soviet Union. Most of their troops were held up fighting in China and their tanks were of inferior design to the Soviets. Japan wanted to bring the U.S. in the war because they thought the sheer logistics of moving troops across the Pacific would allow the Imperial Navy to have the upper hand. What they didn't want was an enemy right next door. Just by looking at the Japanese war machine it is obvious that they were a sea power, not a land power.
The battle for the Coral Sea would have still happened, seeing as the United States would have been in the war, preventing any invasion of Australia. An attack on India might be a bit of a stretch as Japan couldn't make it through Burma in the first place.
As the link above states, Japan did lose the war. Nazi Germany however is still around...

This scenario reminds me of kobyashi's ZWK scenario, in which during the invasion of Poland, Hitler has a stroke, dies, and Rudolf Hess takes over as fuhrer.
Of course this has gone a bit farther. Good luck.The strategically impaired,
