But PS4 is selling on pair with PS3, Switch is selling much better than Wii U. And point is that today Japanese big games are selling much better in West than they are selling in Japan.

Obviously switch is selling faster then Wii u because it's portable. 

Japan allows ps4 to get a ton of Japanese exclusives in the West. Games that don't appear on its main rival the xbox one. It's very important for ps4 to have this. Japan sales really do matter. 

Switch is hybrid not portable, and whats more important Switch is receiving A full home console games same like home console.

PS3 also had ton of Japanese exclusives in the West, also those games did not appeared on Xbox One. Again, point is that today Japanese big games are selling much better in West than they are selling in Japan compared to previous generations.

True.  But you cant deny that the main reason it's selling well in Japan due to it being more on the portable side.  I doubt the Switch will sell as much as it is now if it was only a home console.

I said switch is portable not a portable. You can't argue against this fact. 

 

You could say it's getting full console AAA games but in reality the games it's getting are a natural evolution to the Vita games. Games like killzone mercenary would be considered AAA on the Switch and that was a vita title.

Sry I dont understand you, Switch is a hybrid not portable. And and whats more important Switch is receiving full home console games same like home consoles.

There is no natural evolution of Vita games, Switch is actualy evolution of Wii U, Switch is getting full AAA home console ports of PS4/XB1 games also, that doesn't have anything with Vita.

4,5m to overtake the PS3, the question is can it do it? Hopefully monster hunter world has a huge impact in sales over there and continue selling systems throughout the year.
