I was using Newzoo, but I also find another sources

Japan did over 2.8-3.2 Billions of US $ according to Famitsu (3.9 Billions with Console + PC according to Newzoo). Uk did 904 Millions of euros with software and 690 Millions of Euros with hardware, 140 Millions with PC Hardware for gaming  and 130 Millions with used items(I don't know what it is), 360 Millions with acessories and 1.225 Billions with PC and Console digital, this is what makes the things hard.

So, both have pretty much the same revenue for consoles.

I had the impression Japan had more devs than the UK... 

UK also has a lot of devs, the same is true for France and Germany. Microsoft needs to get Market share on Europe. They already have on UK, but they lack on other European countries and they don't exist on Japan.

 

According to Wikipedia, Japan has over 365 pages of video game developers, while UK has 297.
