Well, since we're going down this road, yes indeed the Japanese are racist. But it's not like our racist in the west. For instance, do you know why Japan is called the "Land of The Rising Sun"? Because according to Japanese tradition, the sun rises there first. Also, in the Shinto religion, Japan itself is heaven and the rest of the world needs to strive to get there. It's not so much racism as an inborn tradition of thinking they are better than everyone else.


yeah and if you go to a globe in japan, japan is in the middle symbolizing that japan is the center of the world

In america the 360 outsold the PS3 by 77%

In others the PS3 outsold the 360 by 77%

So if you average it out the PS3 is = to the 360 in sales.

Now if you count Japan (where they dont buy western products because they are racist) the ps3 has a little lead obviously.

so in conclusion i think that the 100 dollar price cut had an almost = affect on the 360 as it did on the ps3 and that they both at this point, have an approximate = lifetime to sell (not counting the japaneese)..discuss

 

they dont buy western products b/c they no that they are shit

Japanese people aren't racist. That is such an ignorant comment to make. They watch American movies, they listen to American music, they wear American Products such as Nike. And as someone mentioned above they love IPODS.

Just because they don't buy a crappy console made in America with a 33% failure rate does NOT make them racists.

By that same logic the whole world must be racist because no one buys American cars.

If I lived in Japan and decided to produce a product by the name of "shit ball" and all it was is a ball of shit, then no one in America would buy it. Would that make Americans racists against Japanese, no of course not...

OP, you are a very ignorant individual.

They dont buy unreliable poorly manufactured products when there are better comparable products on the market because theyre smart consumers.

As for the other %.......Modern Warfare bundle of 75k plus various week long walmart sales. Nice try though.

But they bought lots of ps2's.....the console with a failure rate only second to the 360.....

LOL Now you fucked up Toast boy, im not sure bout the Japanese being Racist (America is full of more than 1 racist) but i know they dont like American Products.

 

Hell I think it was Pullus that said The creator of the resident evil Series made fun of American movies

RE2- Typical Zombie out break

I'm confused about something: to be racist, don't you have to dislike/hate a particular RACE?! O_o

The Japanese not liking Americans, which they all aren't that way, would mean what? Which race of Americans, which also consists of Japanese (Asian) people, do they hate?

If you said they have a particular prejudice, that sounds more like it, but what makes Americans any better? I ask this as an American. We have prejudices too, just like everybody else.

Racist on the other hand, consists of a particular race, which EVERY race has racist people as well.

Its not that they are racist because they arent........they are just nationalists.....they would far rather support their own home grown products than an "outsider's"....theres a word for it but it isnt racist.

Nationalists has rather negative connotations. They are patriotic, that's the word. Proud of their race.
