Too early to tell, I never expected the PS4 to do amazingly, but I think it will settle on a baseline 2-3k or a bit more above the Wii U when all is said and done and have some crazy boosts when games like FF release, so over time, I still think the PS4 will take Japan, but not with any huge margin.


Ps4 will double Wii U sales in Japan easily. Wii sold 50% of its sales in a year and a half. With the same for Wii U that means 3.6m. Ps3 only had 1.3m after a year.


Hmm, I'm not so sure we can use the 7th gen a template for the 8th gen, things have changed. The Japanses console market won't accomodate sellers like the Wii or PS2 any longer. As I've said; I do think the PS4 will more but not a whole lot and certainly not double. I'm also banking on this being a fairly short generation, especially compared to the almost supernatural 7th gen which had three relevant contenders after the time where two have usually dropped off almost entirely.
