If *YOU* were the owner of a big (game|publishing|video) company, what
whould *YOU* do? Spend lots an lots of *YOUR MONEY* manufacturing
copys of your product for all over the world blindly? Or would you first
test the product by releasing it in your own country, and then all over
the world, if it is a success?

You, me, and everybody else would do the same: we would wait. When you're
in a company, money is the only thing that cares. And Accounting won't let
you spend such big bucks until they're sure of the success of the product.

The Japanese are not to blame.
