Ever push a VHS tape into a VCR and heard all those little motors whirr and buzz? Ever seen a Lexus with a Pioneer 6-CD caddy in the glovebox? Ever seen one fail? What about MiniDisc players? Sony made millions.

In terms of "software" in those days, at most you got a programmable LCD screen and some buttons. Japanese people never cared about the computer. They were trying to perfect the tiny motors and microscopic doodads inside the device. They were doing that better than whitey, coming up with new applications and designs for these things, giving us Infiniti cars with active suspension to rub our faces in it right before the crash

That's not bullshit though. The micro electric fad came and went, CD players and VCRs vanished and companies like Samsung could compete in consumer electronics. Korean firms could never compete on manufacturing quality but that's less of an issue when there are no moving parts. When semiconductors started to replace moving parts Japan suddenly had no edge

Idc if the Koreans make cell phones; Japanese culture is still superior in every respect to every other culture.
