>>36102205>Because i was talking about outside of japanAnd I asked why wouldn't your argument apply to the japanese, which you casually ignored. You can't just pretend that your argument is sound by claiming Japan doesn't count. It proves you wrong whether you like it or not.
>And the reason why your examples ever surpassed their competitors was because the markets weren't entirely oversatured with those same genres/mediums???
You're saying there's more monster collecting games than VIDEOGAMES AS A WHOLE in the 90s? Cause that's the only reason you can claim the Sony dominating Nintendo argument isn't valid. And guess what, Nintendo would later outdo Sony in the 7th gen with the Wii and DS vastly outselling the PS3 and PSP respectively, then again with the 3DS and Vita, and then going back to Sony dominating with the PS4, another case of customer majority hopping brands. To claim that monster catching games had a bigger case of "oversaturation" than the biggest videogame industry competitors as a whole is beyond disingenuous.
>no one has the energy to try anything different because there is way too many optionsYou mean like how Youkai Watch succeeded in Japan?
