Well I checked the numbers and it looks like Japan is second only to the US. It beats the UK and germany. And this is despite launching later then these regions. Funny how these same people describe ps4 sales as amazing in the UK and germany. And they wouldn't dare call the UK/German market irrelevant and unimportant to Sony.
PS4 Sales by country: #1 US 20m #2 Japan 5.4m #3 Germany 4.7m #4 UK 4.3m #5 France 3.7m
Let this kill the myth that Japan is not important to Sony and they'd not be bothered without it. They care a lot, I guarantee you that. |
