What about the Japanese audience? Are they being abandoned or ignored? Yes and this is why gaming is on a decline in Japan. The majority of Japanese developers are all focused on the west. They seem to be losing their originality and the quirkiness that made western fans want to play them and import them when they were not localized. It's a shame. Hopefully Square can get its act together and reach out to fans in Japan with some new RPGs and maybe a love sim or two to reignite the video games market in Japan. Do not leave Nintendo to try and do it on their own.
If Nintendo is successful at the moment, it’s because they are good, and I cannot blame them for that. What we should do is try to be just as good.----Laurent Benadiba
