Learning Japanese

Hey guys,

Been a long time since I've been on the forums. I've started college and have been busy with some other things.

Anyway, straight to the main point of my post: should I continue to learn Japanese?

I've been learning it sparingly on and off for about 3 years, although not all of that was a waste. I have learned a lot about learning languages. The thing is I'm starting to question if it's that important for me to learn. I'm majoring in Game Art & Design and I will probably always live in America (unless I retire and move to Italy lol). I would like to visit Japan though. The thing is I've heard that a lot of Japanese people understand English.

I'm thinking about switching to learning Italian. I was going to do this after learning Japanese. I would definitely enjoy doing Italian more, but I wanted to learn Japanese because it is a business language. The thing is, will it really be that useful for me to learn?

Thanks,
Steven Palmesano
