| Metallicube said: I always found it odd that PS3 always did so well over there, since it seems to appeal far more to a Western audience and holds few popular Japanese exclusives, while Wii (currently) and Wii U struggle, when Nintendo seems to put its focus far more on a Japanese audience, and holds the more popular Japanese franchises like Mario, Wii Sports, Dragon Quest, Monster Hunter, etc.. |
In Japan, for the most part, Nintendo is viewed as something that kids cut their teeth on. It's games and systems are the first things you play, then when you grow up, you "graduate" to Playstation. That's what I've read anyway and it would explain what you're saying since 16-25 year olds have alot more money than 5-16 year olds.
