What games do Japanese people play? Not weebs; actual Japanese people? Is it like a reverse weeb situation where their Sup Forums equivalent is flooded with
>desu Mister Burger
>Call of Duty thread
>Muh US Cartoons! Muh Rich and Morty games!!
>Favourite western developer? Hardmode: No Blizzard
Or do they actually play Japanese dev games like Nintendo and Sony first party stuff?

Nothing or some gacha mobage shit most likely.

Video games.

Nintendo games and consoles in Japan always sell well,they go crazy for Dragon Quest and Monster Hunter in particular.

A whole bunch of VN shite, grindathon mobile games with gacha machines at every turn, and Japan-only mobile MMOs. They have awful tastes in games perpetuated by their workaholic lifestyle which grants them only free time in public transport.

In Japan right now. Barely anyone plays western shit. Dragon Quest just came out a couple of weeks ago so I've seen a lot of people playing it on 3DS recently. Suprisingly most of the stores around here sold out of the PS4 version and had a bunch of the 3DS left, even though I read that the 3DS sold double or something crazy like that. Also see Zelda a lot still.

Splatoon 2 and DQXI. You could probably get a JK to let you creampie her for a Switch.

Don't they also play a lot of western shooters? I thought I saw somewhere that some japs like playing those kinds of games.

check jap streams, they love western shit like PUBG

They just play with their tiny dicks instead of reproducing.

they pretty much play jap games too. Even the top selling xbox 360 game there was star ocean 4.

Not the people I've talked to, but I have seen Call of Duty in stores more than I would've thought. I saw a Left 4 Dead 2 arcade machine with a trackball and mouse though, so there's obviously a market.

I thought it was im@s

>reverse situation
Japanese here. In Japan there's plenty of people that appreciate western games, platforms like Steam have becoming more welcoming to Japanese little by little. But the great majority still plays mostly Japanese games, I see plenty of users always bringing sales charts, Japanese magazine reviews like Famitsu and similar, so you can get an idea.

Sometimes particular western games gain notable popularity, I used to know so many people that played Terraria for example, but it's still really, really niche in comparison to Japanese games.

2BROs love western games.

洋ゲーはクソ

>platforms like Steam have becoming more welcoming to Japanese little by little
Why THE FUCK are so many if not all Steam releases of Japanese games are blocked in Japan?

Pokemon.

Video games.
Japs are no different from other world. They play all the different shit. Including shit like CSGO, DOTA2 and LOL.

No

Japan companies hold the rights for sale in the particular region, but have no desire to sell on PC because stupidity. That's one of the reasons I said little by little, few Japanese games on Steam have even Japanese text on it and sell globally.

It's fine for Japanese to buy western games though, ironically Steam is still not a nice place for Japanese to buy Japanese games.

>not weebs
>japanese people
weebs are non-japs people who like japanese stuff with an obsession.

Yes.

>the devs already did all the work and ported the game to PC
>Steam is handling all the digital distribution, storage and server expenses
>all what's left for the publishers is to get their share of profits from the sales in Japan as they do in the other regions
>but they don't
This just sounds crazy.

Smart phone games are what everyone plays. Trains, cafes, walking down the street, whatever. Of course, Pokemon GO was big, and still is albeit not the craze it was.

Girls mostly play rhythm games, or card games. Lots of instant gratification shit. It's like an entire country filled with normies who love more interactive, colorful, and addictive Bejeweled variants, as well as more ethereal-feeling Guitar Hero games, if that makes sense at all.

My first girlfriend here loved Bloodborne, and Nier. My current girlfriend likes playing Tekken 7 with me. One of my students was a police officer, and most young police officers are sort of military-otakus who are capable of leaving the house, so he and I play Battlefield 4 sometimes on PS4, and apparently many of his coworkers play the Battlefield series.

Outside of that, Japanese people like Japanese things. That extends to the games they play. My young students all have a 3DS or Vita, or both. They fucking love minecraft, though, the one constant I've seen from all the kids' selection in games is minecraft.

Strong statement. Got any evidence to back it up?

>Girls mostly play rhythm games, or card games.
Don't forget VNs, or games that are like half VN. So stuff like Phoenix Wright, Professor Layton, etc, those are the only games my sister played that she ever actually finished.

洋ゲーはクソすぎてカネを積まれてもやりたくねぇ

I guess so. I mostly see young guys playing VNs on the bus or train, and DESU I don't seek out people who love video games, so maybe I don't meet hardcore gamers.

>Is it like a reverse weeb situation where their Sup Forums equivalent
2chan's vidya board is flooded with Japanese games. 2chan's vidya board is much like Sup Forums.

2ch's vidya board is flooded with western games. 2ch's vidya board is much like some shitty game subreddit.

>You could probably get a JK to let you creampie her for a Switch.
I'm going to Winter Comiket this year.
Should I buy a Switch for this purpose?

They don't care for XBox so it automatically means their taste is better than ours.

I know some Jap at Uni who's fucking OBSESSED with Kerbal Space Program to the point that he plays it in lectures

They don't have a weird complex about ""weebs"" like you do so the question you're asking is a construction that only makes sense here

Yes if odds. No if evens.

>69

Someone on Sup Forums made this pick didn't they?

Yeah they do actually. Everyone in the world looks down on actual otaku. It's just that shit like reading manga or whatever isn't itself inherently shamed.

I added a nip on console and played COD with him. Because I joined his party, I was pretty much playing in the jap servers. They're decent.

>implying normal japs don't find otaku fucking disgusting and pathetic like everyone else does

>t.delusional weeb who thinks japan is literal anime

Id rather play xbox than be a jap or have jap tier shit taste, mobile trash dwarfs console games in japan

Would you like to suck some sweet Japanese cock OP? I need a slave.

witcher and other european-like games

gatcha (kancolle, granblue, fate GO), jrpgs (which main target is still japan) nintendo games, big budget western releases like arkham knight or wildlands (the latter has been a huge top seller in japan)

No, it's one guy on Sup Forums who's been making these pics and spamming them in any thread with any relationship to otaku culture

Mods delete these kinds of pics on Sup Forums.

burden of proof is based on the poster who said yes

They play the usual garbage like mobages, PUBG, minecraft and call of duty.

skyrim

Despite being a stereotype it has way too much merit: Japan likes cutesy shit. And cutesy to them is bug-eyed and overly expressive. They fucking love SpongeBob SquarePants for this reason. Crash Bandicoot is one of the hottest Western games over there.

Why would Todd side with the Emperor!? TELL ME WHAT YOU KNOW

>They don't care for XBox
funny because 360 was a weeb machine before ps3

ITT: people who don't understand that japanese people can't be weebs.

Hello Americuck

All Xbox consoles sold extremely poorly there,Playstation and Nintendo consoles is where most japanese developers go make their games.

The other user was being retarded for saying weeb instead of otaku, but he has a point, for a time the 360 was the console to play shooting games that weren't ported anywhere else like Otomedius, a bunch of cave titles, and then there was the exclusivity of the idolm@ster series too.

They probably mean people that are exposed exclusively to japanese market. Don't be an autist about semantics, alright?

Exploitative F2P mobile games
Dragon Quest
Monster Hunter
Mostly those mobile games though

Online I mostly hang around Japanese people.

Mobage is by far the most common. Westaboos exist but 9 out of 10 times they have awful taste in western games (modern only, AAA, flavor of the month, even memeshit). Fans of any generation of Nintendo are common to find. Non-mobage JRPGs, galge / moege etc. fans are less common than you think. "PC master race" culture does exist to some extent (Steam is pretty big there and a common complaint is that they're region locked out of a shitton of games... even Japanese one, and that Japanese translations are often either horribly broken or cost additional money.). VR is fairly popular as a whole.

>What games do Japanese people play?

Check their top 10 sales list. Easy. That is literally what they are playing.

Dragon Quest Monster Hunter and Aokigahara.

You can fuck off if you think you are going to make friends here trying to passivly aggresive bash papa Franku and pink guy.

>visual novels
>mobile games
>rhythm games
>rehashed releases of 20-30yo series
They play shit games OP.

>rehashed releases of 20-30yo series

Oh? And what do we do in the west? Buy Skyrim again?

Filthy frank is a disgusting loser. Do people on this board actually like him?

Frank is supposed to be a disgusting loser obviously. Joji seems like an ok guy irl to be honest. Some of his music is ok, and he just wants to make people laff and he gets paid so. There are worse content guys out there.
