Japan becoming less and less relevant.

the **** are you talking about? 2/3rds of the big three are in japan. lelelelelel

Software wise they are,and those two of the big three as far as home consoles are concerned,one is already a massive flop(WiiU) and the other is almost completely western oriented games wise(PS4),and lets not forget that it only launched in Japan months after Europe,North America,and other regions.

Don't speak truths you will anger them.
