It is. Only if you include handhelds it's somewhat a relevant market. But for the three home consoles Japan has dropped to less than 10% of the worldwide sales in this gen, and for consoles software even less.
Take last weeks sales for example (June 20th). Worldwide total sales was 470,000 units of Wii, PS3 and X360, but only 34,000 of those were sold in Japan. That's just 7.2%.
