IDK what some people are denying, but Japan looks pretty important to me. Might as well say the UK isn't important to the 360, Wii or PS3 as they failed to crack 10mil there

Japan's population is double the UK and for home consoles you're talking 23.6 million sold in Japan and 23.5 in the UK. Soon enough even with double the population, Japan will be behind the UK. Furthermore we're saying Japan is not important to MS. They have 1.6 million sold there all generation. In the UK they have almost 9 million. How is that relateable at all?

Plus, home console sales in Japan have been down 2 generations in a row. A small percentage from generation five to six, but so far in generation seven, the drop is over 21%. And there's no evidence it won't be even worse next gen. I don't think VGChartz has UK numbers going back that far but I doubt you can say the same about that market.

Japan is already irrelevant for MS and soon enough it will be for Sony as well.

U mad bro? I really don't care. Just stating that Japan isn't irrelevant as was said before. I'm sure MS wish it had sold 8 million more consoles in Japan. Just like Sony wish it sold more in America or the UK or even it's home country. Just stating facts is all. No blinders here.

I understand exactly what you're trying to say. And I am just letting you know you're wrong. Numbers don't lie, bro.
