Can I ask what sony were thinking when they ignored how important the japanese market is to handhelds? Did they think monster hunter would just lock in place or something?

I must admit I was very surprised by how important monster hunter was to psp success there. The sales are talking though. Obviously there must have been other reasons psp sold but was monster hunter really the system that got psp famous there in the first place?

But they were stupid ignoring the importance of japan. Those developers are the driving force of handhelds.

Exactly.

The consequeces of this will be gigantic next year

1 - For letting the 3DS grow alone that much in japan - it'll have a huge holidays.

2 - Vita will face a game drought next year due to lack of japanese games to localize, especially games that push sales.
