Well duh. Anime fans tend to like Japanese games, so they'll enjoy what PS3 and Vita have.

Wait, wait, wait...

In another thread you took offense to being called a lonely pervert, but here you don't mind being called an otaku which is more or less a word that describes lonely perverts who have no life and are absolutely sad individuals.

No, I just said the statement that American anime fans will like the Japanese games on PS3 and Vita is true. I don't think it equates to otaku and I don't think enjoying niche Japanese games pushes you into a stereotypical mold.

Oh, so you didn't read the actual article. It equates anime fans with the growing American otaku market right away.

Oh, when I see "American Otaku" I don't read it by its actual definition (meant as an insult of the subculture), but the romanticized version used in the West. Like a lot of things brought over, it loses its true meaning. In the States, it's used synonymously with fans of anime and Japanese games.
