But I wasnt talking about global sales.WW is obvious that Sony is doing extremely well.My question is for japan.Wether WW is more important or not its not the point.The point is that Sony has "lost" japan.At least it looks that way.

Sony has lost Japan since 2006, except for the PSP. Ever since that year sales have been bad for PS homeconsoles. This year is the best year for the PS4 in Japan and worldwide. The PS3 and PS4 have sold the same amount of units when you align launches.

On an unrelated note you don't need Japan to still sell a shot load of consoles.

Ps3 sold well in japan, its just that it had actual competition.the 360 being a niche but still viable pick and the wii... being the wii, and also considering the fact that the ds/psp was powerful enough so that lots of games erre made on them instead.

 The things is, the ps4 is starting to trail behind  theps3 despite the fact that it had no competition untill the this year...
