[NeighborhoodP]

TG Sambo... Intel Classic!

 

[Sleepy]

japan isn't small really lol, tons of fanboys and fangirls there.
Hell even chocobo tales is a ****ing greatest hit there.

Believe me, they'll buy ****ty games and be fanboys/girls there. They even have a ****ing game on DS where you touch the girls in the right places.

 

[NeighborhoodP]

europe and north america are very large.

by comparison, japan is small.

 

[Lovage]

korea > japan

kawa-iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

 

[Sleepy]

but in gaming consumption, they're a mega conglomerate. just look at why tales of vesperia and xbox360s sold there (huge market boom). You can't not consider them a large gaming market industry/consumer.

 

[The Greater Leon]

arent nintendo and sony based in japan?

 

[Sleepy]

most of the gaming companies are based in japan. The big US majors left are really EA, Valve, Blizzard, Epic. There might be a few more, but there can't be much more. Squeenix is one of japan's top, along with namco, konami, and capcom. console developers like sony and nintendo are based in japan.

so i guess no one plays HDR then?

A game's success is no longer defined by selling a lot in Japan, and it's been that way for a long time. Americans and Europeans buy more games than Japanese do; it's just a fact. Yeah, they play a lot of games. So do we, and we have more than double the population. The Xbox is a perfect example of that -- sells like crap in Japan, but it still doesn't matter.

I don't get why this matters.

 

[choknater]

wasn't halo and starcraft made in japan?

 

[rudeezy]

halo? made in japan?

lol (may be true but it doesn't seem right)

 

[Sleepy]

wasn't Halo And Starcraft Made In Japan?

Starcraft Was Made In Irvine Ca, Blizz Hq.

 

[The_Loki]

Halo was made by Bungie who are in WA.

 

[Grunt]

one more reason WA is amazing.

 

[The Greater Leon]

idk
idk about this agrument lol

 

[Sleepy]

for the most part the largest game companies are in america and japan. If I remember the consumption of games is mostly american in europe, and not even japanese games, while america has a high consumption of american and japanese games. Japan doesn't have a high consumption of american games, because they're really baised on a nationalist level.

 

[choknater]

as for mmo's, everyone goes for the korean stuff besides WoW

diablo iii is gonna have a huge effect though i bet

 

[The Greater Leon]

korean mmos ****
except the are boring grind fests
lol
flyff and lunia 2 good

theyre making a dbz mmo

 

[Sleepy]

actually there is a small argument that dota is like downsized mmorpg, without the grind varient, that's why a lot of people play that. I even have a lot of friends who quit wow but play a lot of dota.

 

[The Greater Leon]

dota is just a good game
but i can understand that comparison

 

[Miharu]

tbh i never understood how people can say dota is an mmo without the grind

even though i've played 2+ years of RO myself (before moving on to SSBM and dota), i still don't get it zz

 

[pockyD]

dota has plenty of grind

 

[choknater]
