🇯🇵 Japan · 35.0000, 136.0000

Japan is on this map as a whole country rather than as a place, because Wikidata records 116 video games as set here and nothing finer. The dot sits at its centre, which is not where anything happens: it stands in for the whole area. Nothing is claimed to have been filmed at this point, and no film or series is placed this way anywhere on the atlas.

Set here

Video games that take place here. A game is filmed nowhere, so this is where its story is set rather than where a camera stood — a different claim from everything above, and kept under its own heading for that reason.
