lol. I totally overestimated the PS4 performance. 3 weeks of shortages and this week. It was doing 20k+ before the shortages, it's as if the slim and Persona barely had any effect on sales. It would've sold the same amounts regardless of the Slim or Persona.

I think the effect is basically similar to MGS5 launch, which is 50,000, someone can pull that up. If you factor in the loss sales from the previous weeks with shortage. (My math could be really off, and obviously that is with the assumption the baseline of 20,000).

3 weeks of shortages = 60k sales lost

This week sales without the slim or the persona effect would've been 20k too

So effectively, 4 weeks of sales = 80k 

I know delayed sales aren't guaranteed sales, but still, the number is disappointing in my opinion, but I think I expected too much from Japan. NX will give us the final clear picture about traditional video games sales there.
