Except that what little information is know about him just reveals he has the same attitude as his father. It's also been said he's even crazier too.

Not going to bother to search for sources, since the Internet is probably filled with death notices of his father, and It'd take more time than I care to locate it. Instead I'll just speak on the prospect that the youngest son was appointed to succeed him. This to me just seems to be a tell tale sign that he is similar to his father than the others.

So playing games makes one more westernized?

my bad, i often get confused which son is whom and lied a bit on irc earlier :P
the one known well as a gamer is the first son, Jong-nam, who often tried to sneak into japan with his fake passport. if this first son was to succeed, lots of people said that north korea could fall pretty easily.
the one who is said to be succeeding is the third son, Jong-un/Jong-woon, whichever spelled right, and not much is known about this third son to the public except for that he obviously succeeded their bloody looks of his father and his grandfather.
(all ive heard about the second son is that he is even crazier for north korean standards and no mentions about him on media at all. or maybe the second son is too normal to succeed...?)

and yes, like pain edited, switzerland whose government tries to stay neutral to anyone.

At least we'll always have the memories. Who needs food when you can embrace the ever-glorious spirit of the collective hivemind in a game of coordinated mass gymnastics instead? ^^
