All of them?

The source of evil = root cause.

Meaning that a single specific ban can go a long way.

Ya, basically what rol is saying, is that the spark of the conversation is not around. 



 

'Oh wow the Wii U revived. Minecraft U seems to have decent legs. Dat Splatoon.



Nice WiiU bump, what caused this?



Nice bump for Wii U, although it likely won't last. Especially with only 800k shipped for the fiscal year. And PS4 still kicking butt in Japan at #1!

Wow, a decent week for WiiU.
I totally forgot that splatoon bundle was coming. It's a shame that Nintendo criminally understocked the system this year. It had been carrying good momentum from Splatoon, if it had any software support beyond Paper Mario and no stock issues it could have peaked this year in japan, but they just killed it.

------------
Yo-Kai Watch 3 is released this Saturday, and things are becoming bigger each day. From Shinjuku Station promotion to big advertisements inside the stores.


Splatoon continues growing. Yesterday was the release of the new CD of the Squid Sisters from Splatoon Live in Makuhari. It was such a big release on various music stores. TSUTAYA, HMV and of course, Tower Records.



On pre-orders, the Splatoon Water Gun still rocks. Splatoon omocha is having also big presence. Ys VIII had also a stand for reservations. Yesterday, the new Gundam game was opened to pre-orders as well, and it was very popular.

This is stark and depressing as someone who loves Japanese games and wants them a spart of home console culture.
