| Soriku said: @prof wat How are those two things the same? Japanese gaming is in decline because--as according to SE, Namco, Capcom, Kojima, whoever--is the lack of Japanese-esque games and the fact that they don't sell as much anymore. These games' precense aren't huge in the West if they're not called FF and more and more Japanese devs have started to make more Western games because of low Japan sales. When I mean explosion I don't mean SALES (though the Wii is the best system to sell JRPGs on. ToS: DotNW is the best selling current gen console JRPG in Japan now.) I mean amount of titles being produced. |
soriku, show me how the amount of titles has increased. I said it wasn't increasing and you said it is, in fact you used that "fact" as a way of giving the wii credit somehow. show me how japanese titles are increasing beyond a normal trend of new console game development.
For example: ps3 comes out with 30 games in year one(let's just say) and in the next year it is 50 titles.
show me how japanese development is increasing (beyond what is normal (because that was your rationale))because i'm very interested. Wii 3rd party support is almost non-existent but now some titles are coming along, which is normal for any console, 1-2 years in the aaa games from 3rd party start to appear. This is a normal trend. There is probably more japanese development on the wii already, but stuff so bad you just don't hear about it.
ps: you said "japanese title announcements". So, are you simply saying that there are going to be more AAA titles coming out for a system already 2 years on the market? SHOCKER!!!
PPS: I'm only doing this because you are being a little too much right now. Everyone knows wii is winning the console war. WOW brought up a good point about the whole "let nintendomination begin" thing. It's arrogant, and trolling (quoting your "ps3 screwed up this gen" and just because other people do it ("PS3Domination") doesn't justify you doing it for the other side. Especially for someone with 20k posts and a senior member here, you should be more mature than that.
