First off, "shit game" is your opinion. Secondly, Knack doesn't appeal to Japanese people? It's a platformer, developed by Studio.....JAPAN. It's very Japanese.

http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-4/knack

Clearly not only mine.... And its a terrible platformer reguardless of who its made by

You link a metacritic of 54% as tho that means the game has no value? It is a free game for their new systems, I would happily take a middle of the road game for free with any system on Day1, if someone buys the console with a game they really want this is just a lovely freebie to take a break from their game of choice and try something different, For free!.

Also that link wasn't for you, it was for the other dude... I guess people can say, oh I enjoyed knack and other people can also say, oh I enjoyed Duke Nukem forever (which has the same metascore) but majority of the people would disagree... My issue isn't they gave them a free game, my issue is that they gave them that game

The thing is I think it launched with around 10-15 games just there, some of which are Fps stuff which would be more like a spit in the face for Jap buyers of the system, other games are Assassins Creed 4 and Resogun which are either ports of last gen stuff or smaller titles, Knack is sorta the middle of the road, full game experience but wouldn't really be the reason you would buy a PS4 in the first place. I think they didn't want to give away their biggest chances of selling a game on launch day and also not go with something their fans there would not like out of the box.

Sorry for defending this a bit much btw, I'm just a sucker for free stuff, been getting games with gold for the past few months and the odd game which is something that has bad metascores or is something I would have never bought I still end up playing for a few hours and enjoying or someone at my household does. Value for money always comes into how I game, free stuff wins.

It's a digital copy of the game btw just incase you thought they were recalling unsold copies from elsewhere to just stick in the boxes since you mentioned how it hadn't been wanted in other markets.
