The thing is, you're projecting the situation of the US onto Japan, and it doesn't really apply. Not only is Japan far less affected by the current economic crisis, but in fact they've been in the throes of their own economic troubles for years. In other words, the cultural changes that typically accompany an economic crisis happened long before the release of any of this gen's consoles, and the current situation is in many ways the result. That situation works against you.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
