Part of the problem is the work environment in Japan. A lot of the Japanese work really long hours and make long commutes, which makes home consoles a much harder sell than handhelds.

Yeah, I have heard how pushy japanese can be with their work enviroment.Thats why I think that Nintendo was smart to adapt to the market, without really killing either their handheld or home console side of business.

This is not really bashing Sony per se, just that I dont think we should be praising something that simply isnt impressive.I mean, how much longer are we going to say that these numbers are impressive or superb if home consoles keeps selling less and less there?Are we really going to, assuming its another tradicional home console, say that 5 or 6 million LT sales for the PS5 in Japan are great because home consoles are dying over there?

If you are capable of selling good numbers on a market that is not there anymore, sure that is impressive no matter how one twist it.
