The first video game I played was Pokémon blue, created by a Japanese game studio, and the most recent was Elden Ring, created by another.
Sony and Nintendo are two of the world’s biggest companies, and a key part of their business model is creating great games franchises, either in house or working with local studios.
This is all driven by an ecosystem of great software companies, making the best games in the world (or at the least, outside of America).
- astrange 4y agoSony closed SCEJ/Japan Studio and moved PlayStation to the US branch, where it's now being run by people only interested in AAA games following the Hollywood movie + collectathon + puzzles where nearby NPCs yell the answer at you after 30 seconds formula. So I don't feel like they're demonstrating Japanese software quality at the moment. The Alpha series cameras are pretty nice, but not as much as they could be.
