Japan isn't going to be sold on that. Hell, Sony is doing abysmal due to their lack of Japanese games. Does Microsoft really think that they can win over Japan with a bunch of western titles and a small handful of Japanese games?

If Sony is doing abysmal, who is doing great on Japan's home console market? PS4 is doing almost 40% of the sales every week in there. That is not abysmal.

The PS3, an older console, is selling just as well as the PS4, even better some weeks. The Wii U is far outpacing it. Yeah, that's pretty abysmmal, especially considering that this has easily been their worst launch ever in Japan, and no notable Japanese games are available and will be available for a while.

Also, how is it accounting for 40% of sales? The PS3 is selling 7,000 units, the PS4 is selling 8,000, and the Wii U is selling 11,000. That's 27%, far behind how well it does in almost every other territory. 

Ps3 still games a lot of support and already have a great library of games and Wii u had now a better library then Ps4 ,it would be very bad if Ps4 didn't do well in Japan even with the big games
