Years ago, Japan was the king of technology
what happened?
>>60207819
200% debt/gdp
>>60207819
They became too efficient at producing anime and sextoys.
>>60207819
kikes
>>60207819
not enough children, too much baby boomers running things
>>60207819
They made the mistake of handing ministry of finance to a liberal market patron (central bank pawn).
The ran out of ideas to copy
and a conformist society doesn't create disruptive technologies.
>>60208104
are you telling me the NES and the Gameboy are copycats? of what?
too many goddamn NEETs
exactly the same problem 4chan has.
Old people who still think they're relevant and young people too scared to defy them because muh honor.
>>60208708
3% unemployment rate. Enough with this neet meme.
>>60207819
Pretty much all of the important parts inside of your phone are made in Japan.
Japan still dominates at the components, its the putting it all together into a consumer item its not so great at. They really suck at software that isn't a game.
Personally I find my Sony phone better than anything Samsung puts out, but Samsung is better at marketing
>>60207819
dwindling population that's meeting larger growing populations and can't keep up with them in the markets
>>60208731
>implying young people there care about honor at all nowadays
kek
>>60207819
anime
>>60208666
You know there were consoles before nes? You know game and watch was before game boy right? Granted still nintendo
>>60208749
They suck at optimizing games but destroy it at actually having gameplay
>>60208749

>respecting your elders when they don't respect you in turn
What cucks.
>>60208104
Japs=Chinks=Gooks
Merchants, not creators.
>>60208733
How is (((employed))) defined there?
Softbank has been making some big moves, like acquiring ARM. It's just a matter of whether they actually do something worthwhile and paradigm-shifting in the next decade instead of wasting it like they did with other acquisitions, like Aldebaran.
>>60209418
Nevermind, I only just read they sold 25% off to secure a stake in a Saudi fund.
>>60207819
They still king of kings though, dont let the consumer pigs everyday products fool you.
Many important field in Tech Industry Japan is still no.1
>>60207819
A broken economy, a broken population and weebs
>>60207819
Once upon a time the West outsourced manufacture to Japan like we do today with China or Indonesia, because the labor market was cheap as fuck in a recovering postwar economy.
They had an influx of shekels, getting richer and richer, which made them greedy and productive. In time they plateau'd, like all other postwar economies, but then they fell into the asset price bubble.
Now they mass produce rubber sex dolls.
Cultural shift post war produced crappy leaders and managers.
They became a protectorate territory of the USA. They bought into the (false) financial economy and now they are fucked.
>>60207819
>Japan was the king of technology
FYI that was and is a meme
>>60209398
Japan has enormous creative industries.
>>60209453
>weeb
Yes. A tiny, now practically non-existent American pseudo-subculture is why Japan is not doing as well it once did. Those weebs are scarier than the CIA.
>>60207819
They got addicted to their cartoon sex dolls
WW2
>>60207819
the hentai + anime generation is in charge now
>>60212108
What does that have to do with anything?
In case you haven't notice Japan has ASIMO one of the two best androids in the world, the other one being DARPA petman. You are just mad because gundam isn't real.
>>60207944
this, they become very efficent producing degenerate stuffs at the point where they are king of sextoys related technology
good bye mechas
They have Mechs already
They're just hiding it
>>60207819
Korea took over emerging markets and slowly forced Japan out of their markets, all thanks to internationally recognized patents.
Patents really should be abolished.
>>60208708
Even worse. Their variant of NEET, the hikikomori, is extreme to the point of literally never leaving the house/room/basement.
>>60217119
So what you're saying is they got zerg rushed?
>>60209146
The Japs were unbeatable at making awesome games for as long as making awesome games required to code in pure assembly (think days of NES/GB/SNES/PS1/N64). Once hardware got powerful enough to allow development of top game titles in higher-level languages, they somehow lost it. Some say that it may had to do with a language barrier, as names of keywords, functions, libraries etc. are almost universally english words or some contractions/abbreviations thereof.
>>60209474
So basicly, they started imperialistic, Got ass kicked in the war, went democratic, got rich, went republic?
>>60209256
What the fuck man
>>60216691
This. Japan is degenerate beyond saving.
