Nah. It'll be slow going. Do people want those badly enough to upgrade? Especially when they can get it on hardware they already own?
Will the graphics really matter to them? They wont be entirely new games either. |
They wanted it badly enough with PS360, despite $599 and RROD.

Last gen was winding down. Gaming Industry was moving on.
Gaming industry in this case isnt moving on. Especially not in Japan.
Im not speaking from a industry perspective. But from a consumer.
Will the majority want to upgrade as quickly as possible because they're games on the PS4.Xbone that they can play on their current systems albeit with two discs? No.
We got 2014-2015 games to deal with before we see the "new stuff"

Take it from someone who actually lives here (japan), there is constant talk of PS4, not a single place offering ps4 preorders had any left within 12 hours of going live the second time, within 30 minuted the first time, I'm constantly seeing kids in the street talking about it, hearing coworkers I talk to in bars talk about it.
Not sure why you feel Japanese are some sort of unknown species that don't find games westerners play as 'fun' cannot count the number if times I've heard talk of knack, killzone and the order.
But hey, what would a Japanese person living in japan know about japan over someone who doesn't?

You must be living in Osaka. Everyone round my parts are very tepid.
People, the PS3 sold what it did because like the PS3 it was a cheaper blue -ray player than the rest of the market. The techies went after that shit hard.Had that new hardware feeling with the whole transfer to HDTV's( which took it a decent while to get moving)
Like the PS2. All the PS4 is connecting your TV to the internet and some meh launch games.
In the long run, the PS4 will do fine so long as it gets the games it needs , but we're talking right here and right now.
Also 2 million ? Where do you get 2 million. Barely breaking 1 million so far.

Kanagawa, as close to Tokyo as you're going to get without paying out of the ass for houses half the size.
