The Japanese are just being ignorant just because Sony is doing extremely horrible this gen. They've been forced by Microsoft with excessive JRPG's to snap and purchase at least almost a million 360's. If Sony would've come out with a more affordable system without Blu Ray, Japan would've followed suit and possibly would've outsold the Wii in Japan...taking JRPG sales up with them. The Japanese don't like an alternative when they have their own home version that they could support. Well the question is...what happens when the version they want is too expensive and the alternative has all the games?
