I personally dont give a flying f**k about the Japanese market, USA and Europe are far bigger and if Japanese developers have any sense on making money they will cater for the bigger markets.

SS4, ur an idiot.

can i ask what age u are?my guess is 13 or 14.

Can I ask if your a moron? Oh wait too late, I am right in what I say, If Japan has their heads in the clouds on not wanting to purchase the Xbox 360 because its Western then why the hell are they buying iPods????

Its ignorance.

Japanese developers have finally woken up hell Itagaki woke up a long time ago and Square Enix are only now realising how much potential the 360 has and its the best for what SE want to do.

okay so what ur sa

Super, I agree that the likes of Square Enix have ignored 360 for ages, something was very wrong there, but their absence was better for smaller developers like Mistwalker or Atlus to shine on the rpg stage.

The game industry is still a global market, so I'm glad they realise there's money to be made, if you put the effort in on 360.

Don't know about you but I care for the japanese market. The rest of the games industry is richer for having them and also learning from them, to make our games better. They make some crazy fun games we'll never see released, and that's something I can't give up.

Time for them to learn from us for once. This is the japanese sectors biggest problem, when they bury their heads and deny this. We can all learn from each other, for better or worse.
