so japanese dev's again falling for the 360 trap?
I hope there aren't too many dev's doing this because then we can say goodbye to the japanese homeconsole industry

They are not dumb. They wouldn't be releasing exclusives on the Xbox if they weren't being paid a decent amount of money from Microsoft. Enough money to justify not releasing it to a much, much bigger audience base.

It's also about the japanese not buying it and losing interest in home consoles. They are on a good way after the ps3. they need great games on a console that they buy this gen

Japan's economy isn't in it's healthiest state at the moment; it's not just an issue of a shrinking market. Keeping publishers in business is a good thing. Maybe those games won't be successful over there, but they might find success with western audiences-- and that is good for the Japanese video game industry.
