Nothing is selling up to par in Japan at all, but Nintendo and Monster Hunter stuff basically at this point. 

This isn't even just about AAA games, this is about Japanese games period. A lot of these developers are going to be forced into making iOS/Android games because there is no foundation for traditional gaming in Japan left outside of Nintendo and they're too damn stubborn to support Nintendo I guess. I hope that changes with the Switch, but who knows. 

The West is not going to be a messiah for Japanese gamers either the "dudebros" here don't give a poop about some game with some feminine looking boy band reject on the cover. If Square-Enix wanted to make a fantasy game for the Western audience, they should watch some freaking Game Of Thrones. That's the shit people in the West want to see, not some road trip bromance with Korean J-Pop Stars. 

Yeah... it's the developers fault for not supporting Nintendo... *sigh*

And then there comes more nonsense, about FFXV, when we are watching it sells the best on UK ever, and shipments as the highest ever as well, even while underperforming strongly in Japan compared to the past...

Well, you should just say you want it so much on your desired platform just 'cause, and let it go, really, no need to keep this sad act going on.

It is partly their fault (developers that is), not sure why Nintendo should be blamed for everything. 

You tell me with a straight face that the 3DS, which has some more than every Sony system in Japan and the Famicom and Super Famicom and Wii really has been given a fair shake by the Japanese development community. 

I would say no. I actually wouldn't play FFXV on Switch even if they make it, but I don't want the Japanese industry to be iOS/Android and nothing but, and that's where it's going, and that's what I don't want to see.
