Because they killed Japan Studios.

>>732244773
Retard, it was dying even before that. Fact is, japan just doesn't play on anything they can't take on a train anymore. Hence mobileslop and switch dominating.

>>732244616
Does the PS5 still mandate X=confirm O=cancel in Japan?

>>732244870
Cope.

>>732244971
You're the one whose coping. Not even Japan bought the Japan studios games. And if they did, the lack of success just proves again they were a shrinking market making themselves more and more irrelevant.

>>732244616
Because Sony are disgusting race traitors

>>732244616
What games does it have?

>>732245140
It has...umm...and...uhh...and let's not forget...eh....

>>732244616
>air a state of play: japan edition
>it's mostly rehashes of latest nintendo direct and ports
Idk what they were thinking here

>>732244616
They just watch the funny Japanese anime dog play the game

>we'll do everything to get our japanese fanbase back... except develop and release games they'd be interested in

People do realize Japan Studios games were flopping over there, right

>>732246001
the average /v/irgin has never played a japan studio game, they never bought one and don't know of any off the top of their head. They only know it was a sony studio and some people like it and the games were really good, but they weren't on nintendo so of course they couldn't actually play it.

>intentionally kills off all their Japanese studios & applies completely imbalanced censorship practices to them (Druckmann can put graphic realistic homosex on-screen, but Japanese devs get ding dong bannu'd for having anime girls)
>"How could Japan abandon the Playstation?"
dude needs to move Sony HQ out of California if he wants to be taken seriously.

Killing Japan Studio was more just symbolic of the frustration people already had with PlayStation being race traitors. I remember the Japanese chat in live streams would complain about how they make no games for Japan, only the west, and there were tons of accusations that the PS Store would biasly censor Japanese games like Witcher having sexual nudity but Devil May Cry couldn't even have an ass crack in one cutscene. It was seen as racism.

They should probably act fast and strike while the iron is hot since pc gaming is dying, lots of people will be looking to jump elsewhere when their pc inevitably dies due to some retarded ass Windows update that fries their SSD and don't feel like dishing out $1000 for a new one or their Nvidia gpu or AMD cpu catches fire and destroys the rest of the pc and they can't buy parts anymore since most part makers are abandoning the consumer market.

>>732244616
Probably where they release one game every 5 years and that game is designed to appeal to California

>>732244870
Just put the gacha porn games on ps5 then. KEK. What a retard. Any coomer on /v/ would be a better CEO

>>732244616
>Japan
Ninpedo/jew thread

>>732244616
Sony made the same retarded mistake Microsoft made with PC gaming. They nearly kill the market and after doing so, they abandon said market and treat their old consumers like crap. Rival companies that still care about that market take hold of it and then the old company comes back realizing they fucked up to try and fight again but it's too late.

>>732244616
Because Playstation abandoned Japan first

>>732244616
>Why isn't PS5 popular in Japan?
Because the Snoyim have gone insane

>>732248310
PC gaming is just becoming Steam and Xbox hardware, you just won't be able to build your own gaming hardware anymore. They want to consolize PC gaming, they have the tech now thanks to Valve.

>>732248176
>It was seen as racism.
It's absolutely racism.
See SIE enforcing the western O/X button behaviour onto Japan with the PS5. O/X are the checkmark/X of Japan yet SIE is forcing them to do it the opposite way

>>732245093
why is everyone's taste getting worse all over the world
it's insane how popular gacha games are considering how bad they are, and western media is terrible too

humans have become such cretins

>>732244616
Because they literally flipped the bird at the japanese when the piss5 launched by turning O into decline and X into confirm.

>>732248563
You know they won't since they have to bow down too their dei overlords.

>>732248778
why didn't they just leave it as is for the japanese versions, that shit could literally just be default for any japanese PS5 or at least when they use online and it detects the region
weird

>>732248563
Nothing would happen, it's not about the games, it's about portability. The death of japanese relevance was clear even during the time of the 3ds.

>>732249053
Because the fags at california literally couldn't be bothered to go the extra inch to appease the japs, because they absolutely do not care for them in the slightest to begin with.

>>732249053
They could have just made it a toggle at the OS level. The Switch 2 has a setting that allows you to swap A and B, no reason Sony can't do the same.

>>732244870
Why can't they play games when they get home?

>contract a bunch of small developers to make smaller budget games of various genres and tones
>have them ready for the summer and release them every three weeks or month
>do this every year while also releasing bigger title across the year
btw this is just the Summer of Xbox again.

>>732249532
they dont have homes anymore, japanese businesses make them live on trains
very sad story not enough people know

>>732244616
Sony has never been popular in Japan. to the Japanese Sony is like a knock off company

>>732250204
I don’t know how workaholics do it. I wish I could work like that but I can’t.

>>732244616
The switch has good enough graphics and it can be played on the train. PC gaming has also become a lot more popular and the PS5 barely has exclusives

>>732244616
It does feel somewhat like he genuinely wants to try to fix things but they never recover from the sheer amount of damage done by Ryan, Hulst and investors and anything he can currently do will take too long and be too little too late.
>>732250060
and the ones that do live in tiny homes that can't fit a huge home theater setup that the PS5 essentially demands you have, hence why the PS Portal sold okay there but still nothing compared to Nintendo and mobile.

Funny how snoys and liberals just want to forget about this era of pozzed bullshit lol Japan rejected you for a reason, you are the cancer killing the world.

>>732249532
What home?

>>732251067
And they will deny it to the grave, they will never admit defeat no matter what anyone says. If Sony wants to change then they themselves will have to do it.

>>732250774
i think it might be a joke (but sadly not sure about that)

PC gaming is dying? I don't wanna pay for pointless PS online subscriptions tho lol

>>732252336
Gaming in general is probably going to be on a downward spiral for a while. Shit's too expensive and big releases will probably be sparse, and ones that do release people will be too busy with GTA to care (if it even comes out this year)
I would say now is a good time to clear out backlogs and check out older games you missed.
As for PS+ shit thankfully my PS5 is essentially a single player machine even when other family members are playing it so it's not really needed for me. It's overpriced as shit now anyway.

>>732252336
See>>732248702
This is your PC now

Hopefully Sony will be even more racists to the japanese/asian crowd by not selling to them at all since they hate Asians so much.
It would be so funny if japan bans playstation and Sony in their country.

>>732250204
evil culture

>>732244616
Didn't Sony shut down it's Japanese HQ and move it to California?

>>732253102
>if it even comes out this year
2 years minimum for that game.
Maybe a demo this year or next year. Hell if they were smart they should release the online version first to milk the fanbase

>>732253663
They did that cause the higher ups at Sony like having white whores cause they were sick of their Japanese whores.

>>732244616
Because its calishit
God is a gayniggerfaggot because he won't wipe that aidspit off the face of the fucking earth.

Including mobile in marketshare for games is like like including cigarettes in marketshare for food. Gacha is not a game, its an habit/addiction. The only market mobile games compete with are casinos.

>>732253102
I think were seeing a boom in indie gaming now?

>>732245093
Exactly this but almost no one in this thread will admit it. The only games Nips play are gacha, Mario Kart, Pokemon and Animal Crossing. Literally nothing else sells over there.
