It's not spite, but they absolutely do favour stuff built in their own country, as many do. Nintendo also notoriously builds their systems and games for the Japanese audience in mind, because it's what they know.

It's a totally different culture, and Japan as a nation is relatively isolated, so it's not a spite thing - just liking what is available to you and what you know.
