Japan and south korea already have amazingly fast and high broadband penetration-- you can find 1Gbps lines in japan for under 60 bucks:>

http://tech.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/09/27/1757211&from=rss

Thats around 100MB/sec which means a 10Gb game should take approx 3-5 mins tops to download.

 

 

Localized regions of geographically small countries is not a convincing argument. These countries also happen to hard the largest tech infrastructure budgets in the world since they are also home to a few of the largest tech companies in the world.  Find me cheap broadband in Swaziland.

sure.. if you can list how many blu ray players swaziland has...

 

BTW, JAPAN is the 2nd largest economy in the world. SKorea is 14th..above australia, just below India and Mexico. So these are not small localised regions.

 

swaziland is 147... pick better examples next time to state ur point

 

 

The speeds you are citing are not widespread in availability across Japan and South Korea.  The available regionS for these transfer speeds WITHIN THESE COUNTRIES  ARE SMALL AND LOCALIZED.
