GameRager: yet they still use the word Gaijin in japan all the time.
That's because the word "foreigner" isn't a racial slur.

SLP2000: Activision will buy them and then we'll get them here.
May be, may be not. Activision no longer sell world wide on most other services....

Didn't knew about dotemu, o_0 For what I see, they have at least Alien vs. Predator 2000, which gog doesn't have, but nothing else I may be interested in. But I'll keep an eye on them, since they don't use DRM either, :)

GameRager: It's used in a subtle derogatory manner by some Japanese though.
No more so than the word "foreigner" is used in a similar manner by some English speakers.

Aside from the blatant no-hopers (Blizzard, Valve, Stardock), I'd say Lucas Arts, who seems to have lost interest in releasing their old games on Steam, never mind a DRM-free platform.

GameRager: And some of them use the word in a nasty manner or simply don't hire foreigners if they can help it.
I'd sure love to know where you're pulling that from. As someone who has worked at a fair few Japanese companies, and am still employed by one, I can say that as long as you can speak/write Japanese at a level that will enable you to work in a business environment, you're not going to be refused work by most respectable companies for being a foreigner.

You might find yourself being turned down for a job for being the wrong the gender, but race, contrary to what many overseas my think, is not a big issue. Especially so now as more and more companies switch from a Japanese language business environment to an English language one.

But I'm going to stop there as this is derailing the subject of this topic. And trust me, if the Japanese wanted to use derogatory terms towards foreigners, they have far better choices than to simply say "foreigner".

Lucas Arts, Id, and Electronic Arts (who have a TON of classics they're not releasing anywhere)
