I think it´s exactely the opposite.
This doesn´t explain why japanese audiences loves so much Rpgs, while in the West they´re not as widely appreciated. Wouldn´t it because western audiences doesn´t appreciate difficult strategic games ?
For me rpgs/strategy/tatics games will always be harder than action games.

Now.. I really want to know what is the source of those japanese consumers lines.... some of them are just strange, or just seem like fanboy talk

BTW I always loved his glasses, so stylish.

It's funny because that's the type of game his most successful console is known for.
