I titoli preferiti dagli sviluppatori giapponesi nel 2015? Eccoli

La fine dell’anno si avvicina e, come sempre accade, spuntano un po’ ovunque classifiche di gradimento su quanto visto nei dodici mesi appena trascorsi. Famitsu ha provato a chiedere a ben 37 rappresentanti dell’industria videoludica giapponese di stilare la loro personale top 5 dei titoli giocati nel 2015.

Le risposte sono state parecchio variegate e ci offrono uno spaccato sui gusti personali di chi è coinvolto personalmente nel mercato e nella creazione dei giochi che ci fanno divertire e sognare. Tra risposte divertenti e curiose (come quella di Itagaki che ai primi tre posti della sua classifica ha piazzato tre giochi da tavolo o di carte), non possiamo non notare, con una certa inquietudine, la massiccia presenza di titoli per dispositivi mobile: nulla di male in sé, ci mancherebbe, consideriamo però che un apprezzamento così massiccio verso i titoli per iOS e Android da parte di chi sviluppa titoli (anche) per console potrebbe essere un brutto segnale per il futuro.

Ecco la lista completa dei titoli preferiti dagli sviluppatori giapponesi nel 2015:
