No need to feel cynical. This is exactly what they are doing.
Japan's Prime Minister dressed up as Mario for the opening ceremonies of the Olympics. Japan actually has a law that makes it a criminal act to stream video gameplay without permission from the copyright holder.
In other words, Japan sees its most popular cultural exports (Nintendo, the anime industry) as national treasures deserving of utmost protection.
