It doesn't work like the US/UK where a few big exclusives can carry you for the year along with 3rd parties. You have to have something special to interest them and then keep their interest. |
You hit it right on the head. They needed to spend another 100 Million developing dozens of original games for japan. They could have given most of these small releases here(US) in the $29-$39 price range to add to the library. This might have only lost $40-50Million. But could have tripled the sales til Kinect. Thus giving Kinect a chance to be a game changer.
