I'd reiterate, PS3 sales are fairly steady. They certainly haven't 'died on their arse' yet, and they're not likely to in 2013. Japan especially, they like their role-playing games, so games like The Last of Us and Beyond: Two Souls going off past trends, are likely to shift significant numbers of hardware.
This point may be contentious, but why would 'previously' eager Wii owners with virtually no new titles to get excited about immediately upgrade to a WiiU, when its software line-up right now is in a similar state? There's still a wide gap in sales between Wii and PS3 in Japan, therefore why shouldn't some Wii owners be more tempted to invest in a PS3? keeping its sales fairly strong for another year.

The Last Of Us and Beyond will shift significant numbers of hardware in Japan?!?!?
What!?
Sorry but your post is a load of old nonsense.

Don't you know how things work in Japan? Whenever a new game is released that registers huge sales, there's also a concurrent increase in the console sales the game is played on. Similar to how Call of Duty games shift hardware in the US.

Excuse me. I know EXACTLY how they work. But the Last of us and Beyond are NOT Japanese type games. Not even remotely.
You are embarrassing yourself.

Actually, The Last of Us and Beyond are games that will very likely appeal to the Japanese even if they're not typical JRPGs. The proof will be in the sales of course.
Using terms like 'total ignorance', 'load of old nonsense' and 'embarrassing yourself' will get you nowhere. You're probably treading a thin line though.
|
Not at all. You are miles off in your "analysis". They aren typical JRPG's they arent even RPG's.
|
Resident Evil isn't an RPG either thats really popular in Japan.
I expect The Last Of Us to sell better than Uncharted did in Japan.(that's if it is promoted well of course)
