E3 is not for japanese games, you will see them at TGS mostly.

Not if they are big enough projects on the level like ff xv
Well, japanese developers are one of the most important reasons for some people to choose Playstation over Xbox. So... I would say we'll see a strong japanese presence on Sony's E3.

If they do that.... wow.
Legend of dragoon is well due for a new installment.
And a new Wild Arms would be pretty great too.

Yoshida means all games. Cygames arent debuting anything a E3. MediaVision aint working on WA PS4. That said, I think DMC5 could maybe be announced and first footage for RE2 re. Shenmue HD Collection from SEGA I think is fairly comfortable an announcement (if not before the event) and Dissidia PS4 port finaly detailed a bit more. And From Software delivers something. Otherwise, I expect everything else from Japan to be known quantities. More FF7 most likely, probably NN2 if it is really this year (early next year). Especially from Sony: unless SCEJ are somehow invovled in a PSBR sequel, I am not sure what else they would have ready to debut, at least on a large scale. While i think Deep Down reintroduction could benefit at E3, I can see SCEJ (who are co developing the title) possibly pushing for TGS to push the PS4 more in Asia. Either way, I think Japan influence could be strong, but not with more chewable quantities and not dreams. I will gladly be wrong though. But DMC5, FF7 and Re2 footage would be enough for me from Japan. |
Maybe i'm hoping for to much, but the last years hasn't come much from japan (if we are talking about big games), they got some problems with the step to hd consoles, whit the start of ps3 in my opinion. Lately they are doing better, gravity rush 2 was a good sign, but still not that big project i was hoping for, but 2 and a half years ago allan becker were gone to japan studio for making them big again, so i'm still hoping for bigger projects, but i could be mistaken
As long as we see some FF7, some Red Dead 2 and some Xenoblade 2, I don't care what anyone else does!
I think very it's important and that goes without any question. This generation Japanese developers have made a huge comeback and are bringing back their glory days. Western developers seem to be getting trapped in a "bigger is better" trap and aren't handling open world as well in general with the exception of a few. Many western devs are dipping in quality and I hope to see a turn around in that aspect. I'm not too concerned at the moment either.
That being said I think that this E3 will be more or less dominated by Eastern developers with some big Western developer hits. I think both Nintendo and Sony will be showing lots of surprises. I really hope that the rumors are true and Sony and Nintendo are brining their A game this year and both of them are bringing iconic heroines as their best spotlight of their E3 presentations. Honestly, though I really don't want to hold my breath on that because I'll be vastly let down if I don't get both!

I hope they always try to keep them in their corner, as some of my favorite games this gen have been Japanese. It's the reason I'm wanting a Switch eventually. There's just too much fun coming out of the East again.
