Sure PS4 won't reach similar numbers to those in Japan, perhaps half. But at the same time, Europe and RotW growth a lot and will offset the Japan loses. But on this gen PS4 have faced strong competition from X1 on USA and that with Japan will make a great diffence.
Brazil was similar up to X360 (that also sold great because of pirating, but with XBL there were a lot that forfeit pirating to play online). Sony didn't even officially launch PS1 and 2 here due to pirating. But all summed, those sales were the smaller part of the pie, and in Brazil and probably a lot of other countries gone by grey market on USA imports. |
Yeah, pirated and cheap consoles were especially popular on markets that didn't had official release of those platform, because they didn't need to care about games, and PS2 was selling great on those markets even couple of year after relase PS3.
