So GOW didn’t sell a million in japan, it sold a million in Asia. That’s way different. Idk if you remember the media create sales for GOW, but they were not that good. It would need an insane digital ratio to past a million in japan. 

Japan as a market for PS4 is far larger than all other Asian markets combined. The idea that it sold 200k in Japan but 800k in markets far smaller is laughable (PS4 sold 1.5 million in China after 3 years, 600k in SK after 2 years).

Media Create does no reporting on digital. PS4 avg digital is 40%. There have been cases in Japan where games have massive digital ratios (MHW, TLoU, Minecraft etc). 

TLoU remastered has shipped 1 million+ in 2018, yet MC has the game at 68k. 

If ps4 average digital share is indeed 40%, where does the rest of the sales come from? Are you seriously implying that god of war did like 700k in japan alone? Or even more. Also, afaik, Was TLOU  bundled in japan? If so that could explain the difference( plus it’s also really cheap regularly).
