I changed the wording to just "conceded", but as a hybrid, Switch can also serve as a console, and indeed the version that can is preferred even in Japan over the handheld-only Lite.

No way to know how the Switch would compete outside of a handheld portion, so I won't speculate on it. All I'd like to see is a breakdown of PS3 vs PS4 numbers (not from us, something that has access to more data).

I'm sure there's Famitsu numbers to corroborate, though I don't have them myself.

Any way you slice it, Sony were once a strong presence in Japan, selling over 20 million with the PS1, PS2, and PSP. Now they're lucky if they break 10 million, and play second fiddle in a market dominated by Nintendo.
