Why do people keep saying that the PS4 is doomed in Japan?

You make a good point, but the Vita also had a pretty poor start (not quite as bad, but still relatively terrible), and now it's been picking up steam since developers are jumping on.

Japansese developers tend to stick with older consoles for the first year as a transition period, and then they start developing legitimately for newer consoles. 

Although, like you said, if major games like Final Fantasy XV and Kingdom Hearts III take too long it will be a lot harder to recover, but if the rumors are true and Final Fantasy XV comes out either this year or next, I think the PS4 could do just as well as the PS3 did.

I don't think Final Fantasy XV will come out that early at all.

But there's Metal Gear Solid V still.

True, but a guy can dream, right?
