It should help sales and maybe even bring more fans into the souls series. The will always be a lot waiting for the cycle of Japanese games to end on PS3 before purchasing which will always go several years into a new gen, q3/q4 2016 is when it will pick up good speed imo.
Considering the 5-6 months after launch month PS4 spent most of that time selling 5k-8k a week in Japan and if this helps them keep 12k-15k a week during the summer that's fine.
The sales boosted this year when there was game after game getting released from late Feb to end of March with God Eater 2/The Order/DoA5 followed by Dragon Quest Heroes then Yakuza, FF Type:0 and into Bloodborne. Japan just needs more game chains like this to push sales. Some of these were previous gen and outsold the PS4 version but also pushed some to buy the PS4.
