They would be right to do so base on logics but this is the us politics we are talking about. The US as often put tax on Canadian lumber because Canadian lumber were more prevalent and cheaper in the US as US lumber is in Canada. The US have done so for this very same issue like 5 times since the 80's each time imposing export tax on Canadian lumber and each time after years of court fighting Us duty were found to be improper each and every time. Anyway I don't think this will amount to anything in the end but better for the Japan not to take this to lightly. Duty improperly imposed on Japanese's video game products is the last thing we want |
Given I am European I would rather see Japan not too cave if shit hits the fan. It would make PlayStation focus more on Japan and Europe which I wouldn't mind. Would suck for US gamers, but hey they can still buy an Xbox. The US also started a trade war with Europe, basically because the trade balance is in Europe is favour. This trade war has not yet ended.
Still I rather have my country having a trade war with US than being it's lil bitch. In general if you give Americans a finger they will try to take your whole hand, if you don't they will still try. Thing is they can only make decisions for you in your nation if you let them and nothing will stop them for still boycotting or adding extra taxes to PlayStation and Nintendo if it pleases them.
Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar
