Japanese don't like glasses, or expensive TV's

 http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/japanese-turned-off-by-3d-glasses

 Of those, almost 70 per cent cited the hassle of wearing special glasses, 57 per cent said prices were too high

If I am not mistaken, the Japanese market is where Sony beats out Nintendo and Microsoft. If this is a true reflection of the market, then Sony may be in a bit of a bind. Sony with the Move will be introducing 3D games in an effort to push the sales of their $3,000 plus 3D televisions and as this article points out, the Japanese consumer on a mass scale will not bite.


Actually Nintendo is winning Japan as well, but its one of the better territories for Sony, so yes not good news for Sony



Rumors indicate that it is planning on following the first approach, sticking a new, motion-sensitive controller onto an existing console. Our perspective is that this is the worst of the three options.

-Clayton Christensen back in 2007 already knew Move would be a bad idea
