Why do the Japanese not like fps games?
Japanese tend to play on consoles, and console FPS suck.
Common internet explanation is that they get motion sick easily.
More likely though is that the genre doesn't really have a foothold in their pop/otaku culture.
They seem to be pretty popular on NicoNico, though I guess that doesn't translate directly to sales or development.

The answer I usually hear is that the perspective makes them dizzy, but I don't know why that would be more common among Japanese people.
A very small PC userbase until recently (ie. the most popular mouse game was Mario Paint), and MS consoles weren't that popular either.

Naw, they like games with simple patterns or games that play themselves. Life is Strange was one of Japan's favorite games.

If you are used to playing 2D games for who knows how long, FPS does become disorienting. You can't switch back and forth easily as you get older.

Nips only like shooting at unarmed Chinese farmers.

Actually they do, they just don't make them.

They got turned off because of popular fps like COD with Nuketown drudging up old memories and don't forget the flash nukes and MOAB killstreaks
What western games did really well in Japan? I know LA Noire was super popular there.

SPS and the superplayers are so obscure and such a small scene, it's like top quake players in the west, not even a fraction of 1% of japanese gamers

It's a JRPG that is 100% idiot proof. It's impossible to get lost.

>Welkin was "too normal and proficient", fans apparently wanted more anime and the general theme featuring tanks and military hardware was "too scary and menacing" leading to the series to dip into a school setting with more whimsical bullshit in the sequels/spin-off
bunch of low T sissy otaku and fujo drones are their primary market I guess
