CHEAP bad games against NORMAL PRICED good games.
Is he going to Portland?
So what do parents buy?
i still am very sceptical on games based on non game licenses
These were all problems of an age without internet.
Little Nemo Dream Master was pretty good.
Without youtube videos.
Based on a comic from the early 1900s
That was Capcom.
Every license game Capcom touched was

But Scribble, one thing you've got to consider is this, saying that it's a basic Japanese trait in a way degrades the genius of Miyamoto himself.
It's a civilization that pops Miyamoto out like a sunflower seed.
Not a race. A civilization.
Japan is like madagascar. Isolated, so its weird self-reliance fluorishes.
I mean, I get what you're saying. I say Japanese in a cultural sense.
But I think you're giving way too much credit to the culture, and not enough to the individuals.
o: ... Well of course Miyamoto's individual-ness helped.
But often as a creator, your efforts are quashed by people around you NOT GETTING IT.
Frequently on display is a flourish of individual exceptionalism
For example, Legend of Zelda was inspired by Miyamoto walking around forests without a map
He wants to make a game about that
Someone has to say "Yes. I can see that. Let's do it."
And... THEY DID!
That's where Japan itself helps.
People who learn to GET OUT OF THE WAY is an asset.
right. Window seats.
So many countries don't have that.
But japan CONSIDERS.
Legend of Zelda wasn't originally developed, though, as what it became.
It was originally developed as dungeon-building software
in much the same vein as Super Mario Maker
One person builds dungeons and the like, for others to try to beat
Hydelide.
I wouldnt attribute the achievements of the few on the whole
Theres alot of creative geniuses in Japan yes
Plenty of weaker games existed by that point.
