If Britain falls, so does the Dutch government in exile, which means Japan can negotiate with Germany for access to the East Indies oil fields. The Pacific war may not take place at all.
I still think Japan would be way too hostile in the Pacific for our likings. It may have been another year or two, but I still think we go to war with Japan regardless.

Would we really go to war to protect the colonies of countries that no longer exist? While America bore the brunt of the Pacific war, the British contributed substantial Naval assets. They wouldn't be available under this scenario. And then there's Australia. What would their role be? Would they stand alone, or be forced into some kind of neutral or subservient position for the sake of survival?
