Just leave it to Nintendrones to turn this article into a: "means nothing for Nintendo, is the ruin for Sony" argument. This survey means nothing for any of them.

I noticed that too.  While I think Rol is half way joking, he is leading on people like Christian who are probably very serious in their mocking / hate toward Sony.  But yeah, let's forget the fact that The Wii kind of died off in Japan prematurely and that many Japanese people are seeing the WiiU as the same, except HD and a tablet.

 

Either way, I think that both will do fine as they can in the Japanese market considering the state it's in right now.  I like Nintendo (I will re-iterate my hate toward NoA, though) and Sony both, but sometimes the members on VGChartz make it difficult.  Usually, it seems that Nintendo fans here have more of a problem with me liking Sony than the other way around.

It was a simple observation of fact. Primarily i would agree with those who asserted that this survey was poorly done, at least if anyone is trying to take it as anything more than a casual glance at the Japanese consumer, but if we were to take the study as definitive, it would be disturbing that a console that is highly detailed and imminently releasing and in the key stages of pre-release hype has the same level of purchase intent as a console that is mostly a mystery
