Japanese devs/publishers. What's up with them?

PC developers entered the console gaming realm via Microsoft and the first Xbox and challenged the lagging quality of western gaming. Japan was destroying the west in console development, but didn't realize true top-tier western dominance until the PC devs jumped ship. Now even the western console devs are learning from the PC devs and are getting stronger because of it.

So why in the hell don't Japanese corporations "learn" from Western corporations, as Walmart and Xerox did with Japanese, and start working with PC devs that are masters in RPG/Indy development? Business strategy failure?

The top Japanese develops in revenue are learning from Western devs outside of Nintendo. Kojima isnt competing with the Japanese, he's already won that war.
