Is Nintendo the most Western-inspired Japanese game dev?
>>12905867Kojima is a reverse weeb
>>12905867>Is Nintendo...Jesus Christ can you fucks play more video games that aren't zeldamario? Jesus I'm disgusted with this place
>>12905867not even close. capcom in their 3d era dickrode the west every game>>12905870another good example
>>12905872I'm more disgusted at people who performatively shit on Nintendo fans. Yes they are the best and no, in spite of how many legitimately solid to great hidden gems exist for other platforms, they don't beat out what Zelda is and has accomplished.
>>12905867Capcom
>>12905892Nintendo might have beent he best Japanese dev in the 80s and early 90s, but by the mid-90s Capcom and Konami surpassed them by a mile
>>12905892Basado~
>>12905870the term is westaboo
>>12905916They weren't even the best in the early 80s, that was Namco
>>12906103yeah they were good for a few years during famicom and that's it. i would also throw taito out there for the early 80s
>>12905872You do realize you can just. . . not click on threads that mention Nintendo?
Fromsoft are honorary Westerners.
>>12905867Depends on how you define Western-inspired. Altron should probably be somewhere on the list, though.>early games were almost entirely Japanese localizations of licensed western games>some of their own early original games, Olivia's Mystery and Little Magic, have their manuals in both Japanese and English despite never releasing outside Japan>the official art for Olivia's Mystery is even reminiscent of a 90s American artist trying to draw anime> after a stint of seeming more "Japanese-y" during the PSX and Saturn era in the late 90s, during the 2000s they almost exclusively developed games based on American cartoons for Western publishers
