Yeah agree with u, US and Japan is the exception because those country at that time is the most advance country interms of economy and the people have buying power more then other country. But mainstream mean also more diverse and variaty of consumer, more casual , and more popular and that's include US and Japan, with PS1 people buy console not just for playing games, people buy for style, part of trend and also PS1 is a symbol of entertainment, unlike SNES at that time, people think SNES is just a video games while PS1 is more of electronic entertainment device.
