In this episode I'm talking with Justin Scarpone, Senior Vice President & General Manager, Asia Pacific at Scopely about the gaming ecosystem in Japan. Before Scopely, Justin managed Disney's Asia-based (Japan, China, Korea, South East Asia) game business, managing such global hits as the Disney Tsum Tsum, Kingdom Hearts, & Marvel Future Fight franchises. 


In this episode you will get answers to the following questions: 



  • What you must know before launching your game in Japan?

  • How did Chinese and Korean companies become successful in Japan?

  • Can you be successful without localising your game? 

  • Bonus: Why the best time to to target Japanese players is between 10pm-11pm :) 


Happy Listening :)
