Do certain games make the Japanese feel nauseous?

Gaijin Gamer writes: "Among my FPS-playing Japanese chums, most of whom are male and in their 20s (Japanese girls don't really seem to dig the FPS genre), only one has experienced mid-game motion sickness. He was playing Crysis on his PC. The rest of them just give me funny looks when I explain the gaijin (mis?)conception that Japanese gamers puke at the mere sight of a first-person perspective. And for a genre that they reportedly "can't get on with", an awful lot of Japanese players have been buying Halo and other FPSes in recent years."
