It sure does. Actually, I would go so far as to say it sounds racist.

Obviously true that's why I excluded Capcom in the very first sentence. But you're right it seems like I said that all fighters were disappointments, which is not true. I was mostly talking about the ones that I've listed (SC, Tekken and DBZ).
Could be though that DoA is following. DoA4 was good just like SCIV was but I'm smelling a deja vu.

So basically you didn't read the original post? His point wasn't ''Japanese games have declined in quality'' His point was to humiliate a poor guy who asked a question and that ALL Japanese games suck. 

There is a lack of quantity? The PSP and DS have been SWAMPED with vast amounts of amazing Japanese games. Also what do series that used to get 80 getting 90% have to do with it? So your argument is that a smalll amount of franchises from a small amount of developers have slightly decreased in quality and this means that all Japanes games suck? 

I was unaware that a small amount of franchises was the entire output of the Japanese gaming industry. I will have to write to Platinum games, Grasshopper etc and let them know that there games suck because they aren't a sequel to Final Fantasy. 

Followed by: Nintendo of America

Reggie is watching, he has told Iwata about this. Be ready for Japan attack.

No idea what you're talking about. I clearly split quality and sales in every post I made.
I said some series have declined in sales, in quality or even both.

The real reason I believe that there is a sentiment that 'Japanese Games Suck' is because Japanese Developers aren't driving the direction of the industry anymore. I think the real problem is that while Video games have stayed popular with the generations that grew up on NES and SNES in America, in Japan adults do not spend as much time gaming as they have longer work days/weeks. Because of this, the average age of gamers has risen world wide, but not in Japan, so the Japanese market is out of sync with the rest of the world in some areas. Also, Japanese culture in general is more risk-adverse than American or European and with rising costs of development, many Japanese Companies have resorted to sticking to their classic franchises, some of which have become stale.

I personally own way more Japanese games than American/European/whatever else, but if you take Nintendo out of the picture than it is probably even. The fall of the JRPG has definitely helped this, as the JRPGs I would have bought just arent around anymore (though at least I have some upcoming purchases to make for Wii, yay!). I don't think the Japanese market is dead, just in need of a refresh of sorts, I am sure that as the older generation of developers gives rise to the new, we will see a resurgence from the Land of the Rising Sun.

There are always people who will offer criticism with civility, and other more base who will heap insensitive and uninsightful garbage.

Agreed. Tak Fujii >>>>>>>> Tak Fuji.
