Well, I think it is noteworthy that RDR2 drops fast, while COD keeps staying strong. Why suddenly the japanese are COD-fans?

Maybe splatoon and Fortnite helped Japanese gamers like other shooting games? 

Splatoon has had zero impact on COD sales. Zero. I could see your point with Fortnite because it, along with PUBG made the BR genre popular in Japan but Splatoon definitely no. 

Black Ops sub series were always popular in Japan but it's the combination of BO4 being good and the BR mode that made this extra popular.
