Will all consoles of the future be called some stupid one syllable word?

Or you could grow up an accept that the world does not revolve around you, and that there is no reason why the Japanese oriented industry should cater to whining Brits like yourself. Infact, Nintendo and Sony should give their products Japanese names that us Westerners find difficult to pronounce - just to spite you for your selfishness

 

Umm the J man isnt American and how is the industy japanese oriented?

 

Fixed

 

Lets see, the top 10 best selling video game consoles (including portables) are made by Japanese companies

 

19 of the top 20 best selling games are made by Japanese Companies.

 

So yeah, Japnaese oriented

 

Historical sales have less than nothing to do with the present state of the industry, so that 19 out of 20 fact is just a red herring.  In the past couple of years Western developers have also had their share of huge huts like CoD 4, Halo 3, GTA4, Assassin's Creed, etc... to counter the Japanese ones like Mario, Mario Kart, etc...

That's not even the real argument though.  In the present day that overwhelming majority of sales are from Western markets, meaning you have to be more western oriented or you risk going under.  Just because most of the hardware comes from Japan does not mean that the industry revolves around their culture.
