Didn't know Japan liked Spiderman.
In terms of games it didn't until now. Ps4 western games are really growing in prominence compared to last gen and the gens before
...and on the other hand japanese games like Ni No Kuni 2 are sold more in the US and especially Europe than in Japan... JRPGs boom outside Japan...
