I know what you mean.
When PS2 lanches, It was bought by adults.
They use it as DVD player, not game platform.
Today PS2 is popular among the young people in Japan,
not because it isn't made in Japan,
but because PS2 isn't very expensive now.(19,800yen)
Indeed we(I'm 16 years old) can get much money as otoshidama,
but their parents(my parents) don't want children to play video games.
so we can hardly spend money for video games.
Hey,no kidding... oh, Korean?
well,Korean people likes to insult to japan very much.
For example... they often burn the national flag(japan)
as if it is natural.
I'm Japanese, so I can't put up with their action any more.
At first,I would like to tell you that this oppinion is False.
perhaps an EXTEREMELY racist society is Korea, not Japan.
because, There are many "No negro allowed" shops there.
This korean knows if this information is true or not.
To be sure,XBOX360 didn't well in Japan.
but the japanese society isn't racist society,either.
The soft in XBOX360 is not attractive for japanese.
Japanese choose game platform by softs.
Maybe Game boy is a good example.
After Pokemon was saled, Game boy sold like hot cakes.
Next, XBOX360 is too expensive for children.
In japan, Adults don't play video game and children have few money.
Maybe they will buy Revolution.
I hope that microsoft gets many attractive game soft and
challenges Japan's market again.
