Famitsu Sales: Week 29, 2020 (Jul 13 - Jul 19)

[Signalstar]

Unexpectedly strong opening for Ghost of Tsushima, a western developed title to boot. Sony's 1st party titles aren't exactly big sellers in Japan as they are in the rest of the world. Hopefully GoT starts reversing the trend.

Stick a fork in Japanese PS4 sales, they are done. I don't think shortages are the reason. Sony would allocate shipments to where demand is strongest, if Sony thought their was an opportunity to fulfill unmet demand in Japan they would direct consoles their. I am not bullish on PS5 sales their either. Sony has to develop a new hardware strategy in Japan.
