Your sentence is very ignorant because 2006 is a record year for hardware and software sales in Japan !!! The only thing declining in Japan is the Playstation market !!! 1. In relative terms Japan is declining. Japan represents 20% of total worldwide sales, in the past it was a larger number, in the future is will be a smaller number. 2. This record sales year is off the back of DS and PSP. The home console market is certainly shrinking in Japan. You cannot look at total software and hardware sales and conclude that Wii, PS3, and XBOX 360 will surpass sales of their predecessors. So you are right, the Japanese gaming market is growing. The only thing declining in Japan is the home console market!!!

I doubt that Wii wont outsell GC in Japan. GC ltd is somewhere around 4 million, Wii is today at 1.5 million, and still sold out. So yes Nintendo will succed this round, and yes PS3 wont reach the nice numbers of the PS2 (if it doesn't start to sell a lot soon)
