        they ARE superior. Japanese are unironically the master race. There's a reason Hitler allied with them. All other races, including other asians, are inferior. They're the peak of humanity, and Japan the peak of civilization. It fricking sucks being born any other race.

    The two primary reasons I would give are:

    1. They don't take their games super seriously. Lots of cartoony shit. Look at Mario. Can you look at all the random bullshit he's done as the Nintendo mascot and take him seriously? I can't. He's just the funny midget Italian caricature fighting a giant evil turtle or doing sports for some fricking reason. Which is kind of sad, as I'm sure people would spill their shit for a more serious and slightly edgier take on Pokemon
    2. They are willing to make sexy anime girls. China has been dipping their feet into this as wellwith shitty mobile games unfortunately, but America/Europe is/are terrified to put anything cute or feminine in their games. Only dykes and ugly lesbians get sexualized.

              Two completely different markets, and the Commodore 64 was a computer, not a console. Most of the people buying the C64 were buying it for its software programs.

                No it wasn't. It was a hybrid. The graphics processor was blazing fast and capable of rendering dozens of huge repeated sprites in a single scene, which is superior to NES' 8 tiny sprites per scanline. The sound chip is the single most legendary sound chip in the 8-bit gaming scene. For strict computer use, people would choose the IBM, which was much more suited for office works but terrible for gaming.
                >Most of the people buying the C64 were buying it for its software programs.
                Kek no. C64 was only great for simple BASIC programming and music composing. You could do assembly coding on it, but you'd need extra RAM. The word processors and accounting software only had the most basic functions, there's not enough RAM.
