We're talking about Japan though not WW

I doubt companies like Sony and Nintendo base their overall assessment of product's performance solely on how they perform against their predecessor in a single country though.

I mean, just speaking theoretically, let's say PS4 smashes PS3 sales worldwide but falls slightly short in Japan. Is Sony going to consider that a failure? Fuck no.

Ditto for Switch and 3DS. The notion that to be successful Switch must outsell 3DS in Japan is just silly. People are constantly setting these absurd benchmarks for what Switch must do to qualify as a "success" and it's tiresome.
