The game's that will sell systems in Japan are Metal Gear and Final Fantasy those 2 games will significantly boost system sales. Although if Sony has a Quirky wierd game in the works then the Japaneese will possibly jump on that too. The fact is that Japanese like games that are much different than popular games in America, and Sony for now has focused their development on the US and Europe. Heavenly Sword might get some love from the Japanese too being it is based on Japanese lore I believe.

So, I really do not think that those two games are really going to pick up the sales, just take a look at the last two games of the MetalGearSolid series:

Sales

The second one just manage to get around 850, 000 copies, most of them sold in the very beginning.

The third one get around 800,000.

And we are talking about a console with a very large user base, and a good price tag, I do not think that MGS4 is going to move more than 500,000 copies in the first month and a few thousand systems.

Btw, I am not saying the game sucks or something like that, simply is coming on a very expensive system, so I do not expect great sales.
