Wii U drop is predictable, consoles are dead there, Wii U is dead everywhere basically, they are going to get two decent boosts this year with Mario Kart and Smash but otherwise sales will likely remain mediocre for long stretches in between.

Decent Vita hold, looks like it will be the defacto no.2 platform in Japan this gen, much like PSP, but significantly weaker.

IF PS4 doesn't outsell Vita in Japan I will personally eat YOUR hat (and mine!)

With what games? 90% of the software for the thing is Western games. It might as well be called the Playstation XBox. I just don't see it. I think its best case is to sell about on par with the PS3. 

Japan is just done with consoles. I think a full blown Nintendo tablet is well on its way (see that other thread) too ... that will be the final nail in the coffin for the Japanese console market.
