People forget an important part: if sony loses japan, ps loses one of the biggest reasons it has to selling: jappanese third party exclusivity. In fact the widest 2 console game coverage may as well turn out to be xbone+switch after a while whereas before now it was 3ds+ps4.

Do you think those Japanese exclusives are there because Sony is doing so well in Japan? Or is it because Sony has a massive installbase outside of Japan? I meant - are those games targeting the 5M owners in Japan or the 60M+ outside of Japan? Also, are there a lot of Japanese exclusives?

You are forgetting that a lot of 3rd party games have 40% or more of thier worldwide sales in japan alone. Up to this point, ps4 was the ONLY viable platform in(but this is mostly due to vita) or out of japan.

Its not like that anymore.
