Japan does have a holiday boost.  They celebrate New Years like the west celebrates Christmas.

Okay. Prove it. Find sales from multiple stores and different industries including gaming. Oh and a commercial or two supporting this holiday event would be nice too. I mean, it's a "holiday boost" it obviously has to have promotion and actual discounts, right?

I'll wait...

As for Japanese advertisements, that's a little tough to search for since I can't type Japanese.
