Wouldn't be silly at all, since Yakuza is always a big seller for PlayStation there (both consoles and individual units). It would be just what would get the Japanese region on board. There's only two other, unlikely, scenarios, and they both point to a PlayStation. 



The last 3 barely broke 500k on a console that is region free and a much bigger install base then PS4. Vita maybe but PS4 would be suicide. You really think 500k is a big seller? lol sorry I just find that amusing. NMH, MAdworld are now big sellers

Urg, why do people think sales are directly proportional to install base... Fall of Man was released at the PS3's launch, but it still sold over 4 million copies ¬_¬ 

Anyway, Yakuza is a big series in japan, the last three have each sold about 600k over there. For reference, Super Mario Galazy 2 sold less than a million copies in japan and Skyward Sword sold less than 400k copies. So as you can see, 600k is actually pretty good for a home console release in japan.
