It isn't that much bigger than UK pr capita.

Japan:

Population: 127 million

Total hardware this gen (handhelds + consoles) : 41.6M

So roughly 1/3 "people" have a console. Excact would 32.7%  be That's huge.

United Kingdom:

Population: 60.5M

Total hardware this gen (handhelds + consoles) : 15.8M

So roughly 1/4 "people" have a console. Excact would be 26.4% That's big.

 

For software, I believe UK is bigger, but I have no stats for that.

 

Also remember that Europe has a lot of PC countries. America also has lots of PC gamers, which aren't tracked here.
