Maybe Japanese do have a chance in redemption.

That sounds about right. I look at my list of most wanted games and the majority are Japanese:

• Super Smash Bros.
• The Legend of Zelda
• Bloodborne
• Splatoon
• Metal Gear Solid V
• Yoshi's Woolly World
• Bayonetta 2

On the other side are Far Cry 4, Arkham Knight, and Uncharted 4, but that's about it right now.

Nintendo, Capcom, Sega, Konami, Atlus, PG, Namco, Sony (Well, some of Sony), Square Enix, and which ever I can't remember...
Japan > West *raises shield*

Looks like they got their shit together in Japan. 'Bout time if you ask me.

Yup.

DanganRonpa: Another Episode; Ar NoSurge; Atelier Shallie; Tales of Hearts R; Neptunia Rebirth 2.

Japan is games!

Well I know my PS3 is still alive and waiting for some of those games. Lol

I like the effort japanese developers are making this generation.

Persona 5, Metal Gear 5, Bayonetta 2, Bravely Second, Super Smash Bros WiiU, The Evil Within, Kingdom Hearts 3

yep. most of the games that interest me next year will be coming from Japan.

The lack of Ys in this thread.... pure ignorance....

My most anticipated games are Dragon Age, Witcher, LBP, Tearaway form the west and Ys, Persona, Final Fantasy (type-0 and VX) from jp so i'm happy with both.

Yep, I agree with you. Looking forward to all of those except The Evil Within.
