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.

Yeah, I agree.The pS4 has been selling gangbusters without for the most part Japan.But I dont think its right to start saying that "Sony dosent need Japan" because no company wants to lose a territory, or sell bad in one.The same way that I think that Nintendo wants to improve its brand recognition in Europe, Sony prefers if it also sold well in Japan.
