edit 2@Carl;

i think the point is, that Western Dev's are able to throw out technically Stunning Games ALOT faster than the Japanese equivalents. just look at the Time a Game takes over there that actually looks next gen, and then look at america.


So we're basing this on how videogames... Look?

Okay. Show me some technically stunning Western handheld games that are on par with Monster Hunter Portable 3, Dragon Quest IX, Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core, Valkyria 2/3, TWEWY, Dissidia/2, Kingdom Hearts BBS, Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker, Ninokuni, God Eater...

The list could go on. Do you know what I'm getting at with this list though? I'm going to tell you.

Japanese development isn't solely aimed at home consoles. A whole bunch of Japanese dev time/money goes on Portables. A lot more than what comes from Western devs. They don't just stick to PS3/360 to go after the graphics whores...
