This is obviously a Dragon Quest/Final Fantasy boost, and sales will likely go back down to 19k/ week. For comparison here are Japanese sales of popular Wii U games.
Pikmin 3 (21k Wii U sales / up 183%)
Mario Kart 8 (19,098 sales/ up 114%)
Dragon Quest X first version and a late port (22,485/ up 108%.)
A new Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest (multiplat PS3/PS4), and Yakuza game will definitely boost Japanese PS4 sales for a few weeks.
Still the PS4's baseline this year is definitely up. I expect an average of 30k /week rather than the previous average of 22k /week. Wii U should have an average of 18k /week still, maybe a slight drop to 15k /week if sales can't pick up again this holiday, although I expect a price-cut to boost sales to maybe 25k /week.
