@S.T.A.G.E: You´re also very patriotic, so why are bothering Akvod? What he says is true more or less. As if there aren´t any japanese fast food chains, coffee shops and mp3 players... Kotaku.com had recently posted a survey on which gadget brand is considered more reliable, etc... And guess who won in each section? That´s right Apple, an american company. Beating even Nintendo. Also the U.S. is an exception in the world when it comes to cultural diversity, Japan isn´t the norm too since they´ve been an isolated country due to their history and geographical location, however they are still quite neare to the norm than what the U.S.A is.

Of course I'm patriotic. I love my country man. What he says isn't the complete truth, but he has points. We never spoke about Japanese fast food chains. We were talking about what the Japanese would accept even with their collectivist mentality. I'm sorry, but I've had more apple products break down than Nintendo, and whats worse is you tend to feel shitty about your purchase after about a year, because the next installment owns the product you currently have. I wasn't denying Japans isolated situation, becuase they aren't the most economically nationalistic country, I was just stating of the big 3 they were the most nationalistic. Japan sees business success as a company providing jobs to their people so they can buy products over actual profit. A company shouldn't strive for actual profit over its duty to consumers and workers alike. This is what caused the Japanese economic boom. I know all about it.
