Ubisoft just shot themselves in the foot.

Ubisoft isn't Japanese they are French. They do not sell many games in Japan since Japan typically doesn't buy too many games made by non Japanese devs.

I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an a******. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the Japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase Rayman Legends, nor will they purchase any of Ubisoft's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Ubisoft has alienated an entire market with this move.

Ubisoft, publicly apologize and cancel Rayman Legends for PS3 and 360 or you can kiss your business goodbye.


I'm guessing you have watched a lot of anime and have decided that you are an 'expert' on Japanese culture

This will have zero effect on Ubisoft. Their games don't sell in Japan anyhow. If you look up the sales for Rayman (ALL OF THEM) on VGCharts you'll see the list for all Rayman games ever release sold in Japan a grand total of around... 30,000. That's for the whole series... combined.

Japanese gamers have next to no interest in games made outside of their own country.

Our esteemed ally has turned about! Leaving us to the mercy of our foes!

A SHAMEFUR DISPRAY.

Are you telling me modern day Japan is exactly like in Shogun Total War? Awesome.
