Japan is becoming irrelevant? When? How? Since when did UK (my own country) overtake Japan??

For home consoles? Japan has been becoming irrelevant for years now with consoles declining a lot over the past generations. Even Sony doesn’t make purely Japanese games anymore.

And I’m pretty sure UK sells more games relevant to the western market than Japan in proportion to population size. VGC says 27M games sold in the UK vs 40.5M in Japan in 2016. That game sold per head is already largely in favour of the UK before factoring digital.
