I mean, Microsoft ruins everything it touches. Who is really surprised here?

how dare you say such things. Xbox and Phil are then protectors of gaming and the gamers.
The funny thing is that the vast majority of xbox stans don't know that phil was on the team that decided on the TVTVTV push for the xbox one. He actually admitted it on an IGN interview. They think he's some sort of savior when he's the same guy as don mattrick except less competent.

I know you're joking but the amount of this sentiment I see repeated on twitter and reddit etc. is just facepalm-inducing.

He has only in charge but people regarded him like industry legends like Seigeru Miyamoto, Kaz Hirai or Gaben. It is fucking amazing, he currently tanking the brand and the only thing keeping him is big pocket of money that worth three time more than his brand.

I'd love if you did a thread sometime explaining how you feel the sentiment and market in Japan is at the moment....

How people feel in general about each of the three brands and if you think home consoles can ever grow in Japan again after the mobile gaming explosion there.

Do you think you could do something like that sometime? (Whenever you have free time.) I think people on here would be very curious.

Japan market prefers easy to pick up, simple games that available on handhelds.

Blockbuster games are not really selling as well in here anymore. Most blockbuster games attract more of age of 40 above actually, I think more adults buy PS5 than young people.

Also I lived in Hokkaido region, pretty far from Japan central like Tokyo, Yokohama,... so I probably out of touch with there.
