360 is dead even with all those JRPG's,but the PS3 hasn't had a single game that would appeal to the Japenese mass market."There's no way a Japanese-oriented game can be profitable on the HD consoles."?? Well MGS4 disagrees.

The PS3 does have games which appeal to the Japanese market, the problem is that none of them had great sales so far. MGS4 sells throughout the world, it's not a Japanese-only thing like, say, the Monster Hunter franchise.

 

Please forgive me when I say I have no idea what your talking about , software support for the PS3 (which apeal the japanesse) is mininal . If the PS3 had the 360s line up of Japanese games then I wouldn't be able to argue

These days Westerners play just as many JRPG's as the Japanese. In the West, the Xbox 360's lead is still in the vicinity of six or seven million consoles over the west. PR = (anecdotal evidence + unfounded statistical information)   Where are you getting this 6 to 7 million figure from ?

Remember that the only reason w e care to debate the goings on of the gaming industry in that country is its effect on the West.I wonder , would you be saying that if the 360 wasn't an utter faliure in japan ?
