Sony has had to lower their prices TWICE since the launch. That is not a sign of a healthy console. It is selling woefully under Sony's expectations. And Japanese RPGs barely even count as games. They're boring dramas with horrible stories, crappy character design, annoying combat, and stupid plot devices. There is rarely any actual role playing going on in those games. Ugh, the dialog is such crap in those games. They only attract the otaku type gamers who wish they were Japanese because of hentai or some crap.
