I can knock off some obvious ones.


-Ghost of Tsushima

-Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

-Dynasty warriors, and samurai warriors.

-Romance of the three kingdoms franchise.

-Jade Empire

etc...

Cloud Master on Sega Master System. Very odd, and very Asian. But a fun little, simple shoot-em up.

To be honest, you could add the Katamari games to the list. Everything about those games just screams Japanese culture, from the style to the music to the items you pick up (daruma, onigiri, kaiju, tengu masks, etc)

For a laid-back and nostalgic look at Japanese rural life, Attack of the Friday Monsters: A Tokyo Tale, Boku no Natsuyasumi, Chulip, and Hokago Shounen are great examples.
