Market fragmentation of the gaming market is happening everywhere, not just in Japan (eg, Facebook's Farmville and Zynga and Apple's apps store). The challenge is also not new, finding ways to port games from one platform to the next (and also localization).

Alcohol makes me drop straight off when I go to bed. It's a depressant, you know.

Props to the 81-year-old man! Wait, if it's so easy to catch these people, why don't all police in each district publish one of their ubiquitous posters with a hotline where they can do the same: run stings on the scammers?

Japan needs to keep on going until they can produce human-proportioned fully functional machine. Then they can ride easy as the world will come to their doorstep for sexbots. Until China copies them.

In Canada, everybody would be down on the ground with an officer's knee on their neck and a gun/taser trained on them until the situation is in control. It always struck me as a little over-the-top, until you hear of situations like this happening.

Typical American reaction: find somebody, ANYBODY (including the judge) to blame/sue when things don't go one's way.

Are all electronics warehouses that easy to break into and steal from?? Sounds like money waiting to be made by anybody with a brain, a moving van and a rock.

GO Wikileaks GO! Look at all these poor Americans, their rights have been subverted so much they can't even recognize the side of good when it slaps them in the face. Land of the free? Can't even publish some cables about diplomatic backtalk without some yankee in the government asking for an assassination!
Assange, btw, isn't Wikileaks. He is the figurehead who risked it all by fronting the organization and, no matter how much of a publicity whore he is, he is sticking his neck out there for the organization. I really really hope they have a successor and let the spotlight return to the real issue.

Go WikiLeaks Go!
I really hope there is a succession plan in place should Julian Assange go under, and that this person has the forethought to be squeaky clean plus smart enough to stay under the radar.
Really, it's very ironic and fitting what somebody said earlier in the posts: "If you have done nothing wrong, you have nothing to hide nor fear." You hear that all the time from the cops, agents and various enforcers of governments, particularly the USA. Now they are going crazy cuz somebody turned the tables? Bet they don't like the taste of their own medicine!

Not sure which one is more of an idiot, but W. Bush didn't completely destroy the country, so she probably won't either.. I would love to see Sarah Palin run on the Republican side for the laughs that she would generate, if not for the fact that (if elected), Canada's economy is inextricably linked with with the USA and her invariably dumb decisions and partisan appointments would negatively impact on my country.
