Yeah, if you prefer Japanese games, I got a feeling you´ll be very happy with the Wii U (I think it´s gonna do very well among J devs)...Monster Hunter and Dragon Quest are already planned for the system, for starters...just cross your fingers they´ll get their heads out of their asses and actually localize more games.

Well at least we are getting monster hunter. Dragon quest has a chance on 3ds but I wouldn't like to say about wii u. I think that is why nintendo secured monster hunter and dragon quest. Japanese support tends to be good on nintendo anyway so expanding on that is a good move. I think that is why Iwata said "we can't promise it will be supported for eternity". He expects western developers to start jumping ship himself. Which is what I've believed would be the worst case scenario when this reaches it's conclusion.

As for the comment about unreal 4 I think 'next gen' engines are being built with flexibility in mind and not something to push power anymore. Developers will want to port engines to smart phones and tablets next gen because I don't care what anybody says. I am not convinced xbox, playstation and pc alone will be able to sustain most of these companies in the next generation. Some are already closing because of ps3 and 360. It doesn't make sense to keep building things on power when you are more and more risking your business.
