    Japanese Gamers Survey

    Let the brain picking begin! A new poll researching the online habits of Japanese gamers and game makers has surfaced. Some interesting results:

    • Yes: 89.4 percent

    • No: 10.6 percent

    On which platform are you using the network feature?

    • 21.6 percent: DS

    • 19.7 percent: Wii

    • 18.1 percent: PSP

    • 13.4 percent: PS2

    • 13.4 percent: PS3

    • 11.8 percent: Xbox 360

    More results after the jump! Brian Ashcraft

    GAME MAKERS

    Eds Note: In the Next-Generation post, there is one last question asking which platform the game makers are involved. Oddly, 39.1 percent said the Xbox 360. That sounds kinda strange, and I couldn't find the original survey, so not posting that. If anyone does find the original survey, please feel free to post in the comments.
