They may succeed in North America, but it will never happen on Japanese turf. And considering (could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure) Sega, Sammy, Nintendo AND Sony are all based in Japan, this doesn't have a hope in hell (I hope). Most hardcore games/electronics companies hail from Japan. Sega, Sammy, Nintendo and SONY are one of those. Of course they have offices overseas, but that doesn't make them more american. IMO at least.
