Steve Wants to Know Why American Games Suck in Japan

GamingSteve wanted to know why games made in America sell poorly in Japan. So he did some research, posted his results, and came up with many, many reasons for why Japanese players generally play Japanese games.

He wanted to know why Japanese games sell better in the US than American games in Japan. Some of his reasons are that it is difficult to find a Japanese publisher to back an American game. Another reason is that Japanese games that make it to America are the games that sell the best in Japan. Plus, those games are then translated and taylored well to fit with the American culture, which is not the case for American games sold in Japan.
