Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo gamers: Do you hate Japan gamers for how they treat the Wii U?

At least Nintendo is loyal to their home country, not like a certain electronic multimedia giant I know.

Japan is relatively Wii-U's strongest market, it's even outselling the ps4 there most of the weeks. So i really don't get the point of this topic.



Japan is currently the weakest market due to a number of things. One being their love of handhelds(phones) and one being the crazy tax hike they got earlier up in the year.

As a console market its going to slowly build itself back up but not until the NEXT Gen. The tax will increase again next year and then sales will drop again. After that its up to them adjusting to the new prices for the next set of gaming devices and games to do well. Every single device over there is doing roughly 2/3rds - 1/2 of what they would be doing if the tax never hit.

This is a joke thread. Just go with the flow.



I hate them for being so good in Mario Kart. Can't really hate them for how they decide to spend their hard earned money.
