Gaming - Will Japan matter? - View Post

I don't think that is true at all. Wii has sold 3.71 million in Japan (more than in Europe), a country that has less than 1/3 the population of the USA, and if you compare to Europe it's even less favorable. Consider that Japan, has bought half as many current gen consoles as europe/others it doesn't seem to bad does it? Now consider that the percentage of the population that is over 65 has doubled and the percentage of the population under 14 has been cut in half in the past 15-20 years it starts to make sense.

Right now is just a slow period in Japan and things will pick up again in a couple weeks.
