I don't doubt it is. In fact that is precisely why Capcom's americanized games do particularly well in Japan. My point is that the consumer base will not give the same chance to violent, american published games because of nationalistic pride, even though they may have enjoyed the games themselves if they gave them a chance. |
Can you give more examples of these Americanized games that are doing so well?
Lost Planet and Dead Rising did not sell much in Japan. Resident Evil is a huge franchise, which is why it's guaranteed decent sales.
Have Japanese gamers gone out and said they avoid American published games because of nationalistic pride? Or is this just your assumption?
