Truly disastreous!

Yeap the sales in Japan are strong.
Best since PS2.

Of course it won’t reach 20 million but over 10 million at that rate will be really fast.

It’s still pretty bad, but Japan is a different monster than the rest of the world.

So around 2.7 - 2.8 million this year? That's honestly good considering how they now treat Japan like a Tier 3 market.

And software? ...

FoamStars - Free To Play (PS5's will be flying off the shelves) for once we'll be able to defend a game not charting but consoles are selling.

 

[Hezekiah]

Very good really when you consider what Japanese gamers like to play.

Takashi Mochizuki - PS5 fails to hit the 2 million sales mark in Japan after 3 years. Continues to struggle and lag far behind the almost 7 year old Nintendo Switch.

And software? ...

Nice. More than PS3/PS4 is as good as its gonna get for now. Pretty amazing considering the Stock issues PS5 had until the last year

Top selling games of the year

Wrong, that doesn't include digital sales.

And the last couple of fiscal years, worlwide 2/3 of the PS games sold were sold digitally, percentage fairly bigger than on Switch. In addition to this, we also know Switch worldwide sales are focused on a small percentage of supersellers while on PS are more spread.
