It's on track to match the ps3s peak year this year and next year looks very strong too for it.  It's going to end up not too far off ps3 lifetime,  which in the dying Japanese market would be a success.  

A few years ago people would have laughed if you said PS4 will sell around what the PS3 did in it's first years in Japan it clearly shows that expectations were higher...Expectations have been in general higher for a lot of PS4 Japan sales. SFV could sell like SFIV did but end up being way worse, people quoted me in the COMG thread that SO V will be fine and no way it would not end up selling good... just a quick skim to the last couple dozen's of pages and you get a situation where people are happy that pre orders of FFXV is better than FFXIII to people saying atleast it is going to do better than FFXIII-2 right?  Right???

That's not true.  People were saying ps4 wouldn't even hit 5m in Japan.  look at all the doom mongers in 2014 who thought it wouldn't even do half of the ps3 limited.  And it's going to blast past that Mark next year.
