Releasing a special edition console for a game that isnt going to release for a while.

Makes sense.


It does actually. They are testing the waters, both from a perspective of PS4's viability in Japan and as a Dragon Quest platform. So far, things seem to be looking up.

PS4 line up looks pretty nice. But I think Bloodborne delay will hurt. Bloodborne was scheduled for February 5th, but got delayed until late March.

An exclusive title like Bloodborne as a starter was perfect. A game that could move a good amount of units, and then multi games to keep going with a positive trend. Since the game will release after the multi games now, I expect that these games will sell far better in other systems (probably the same with Bloodborne as a starter, but at least a smaller difference).

line up is good, but until march is not strong enough now.

Why wouldn't they just buy the PS4/PS4 versions knowing that Bloodborne is coming in a few weeks?

What did you expect. It's a steady 5-20% boost each week until end of January. The boost is there, but not like the West.

It's sad when you realise that PS4 has more games coming out in Japan in 1Q, than Wii U has in 2015 as a whole. :(

That 1Q list for PS4 is really good. The console will sell really well now.
