The curve is indeed bad. If you look at the first year of the PS1 & PS2, each had no more than one week under 10k sold. It's likely that those bad weeks were supply shortages as well. In addition, the video game market was smaller for the PS2 and even smaller for the PS1. I don't know if any major console has had so many sub-10k weeks in Japan within 7 months of launch.
