If the Japanese market prefers one company, there is literally no chance for their competitors to compete except through handhelds. The Japanese have decided that this generation, they like the Wii, DS, and PSP. And they'll probably prefer Nintendo again next generation. After that, it's anyone's guess. The PS3 is pretty much tracking alongside the Gamecube anyways.

 

No offense,but I don't see where that logic comes from.In regard to the Playstation 3 and Nintendo wii; the Playstation has already demonstrated that it can sell above or at about the same level as the wii.The wii is the system to own because it has more appealing games to that particularlar market.As soon as Metal Gear Solid 4 came out,sales skyrocketed;this shows to me that both consoles can sell harmoniously,and that "Japan is only a one console region" to be untrue.

Don't you think that you exagerate a bit just because it sold more than Wii in only 1 week and this is because the supply constrains ? If you divide Wii's monthly sales by 4 you get 375k per week.
