Japan scraps U.S. meeting after Washington demands more defense spending
WASHINGTON--Japan has canceled a regular high-level meeting with its key ally the United States after the Trump administration demanded it spend more on defense, the Financial Times reported on Friday.

Japan should just hold back Nintendo and Sony videos games, systems, and games licensed for those systems. Americans would lose their shit.

You can currently buy the Nintendo switch 2 with relative ease in the US, but Japan could make that much harder.

13 0 ReplyIn the US, Nintendo sold 1 switch for every 2.25 people. Japan could frustrate a lot of American parents during Christmas if they wanted to.
As I recall, consoles still eat up more of the US gaming market than PCs. And mobile gaming is still the fattest slice of the pie.

More defense spending? They can’t even afford rice
15 0 ReplySame as Spain. Trump: You must spend 5% in defense, Sanchez: we have enough with 2%, money for social system, health and education is more important.
