Those who say that Xbox will win some marketshare in Japan are right though. It's not optimism, it's common sense. You know how they'll do it. Even in worst case scenario, that you mention - if they just sell 75k. Okay, that's just around 30-40k loss compared to what they have this gen. But PS5 is very likely to sell a couple millions less than PS4 did. And that's where marketshare gain comes for Xbox. If you lose way less than your rival, you get some marketshare back

pretty much.

The only way the ps5 sells as much as the ps4 in japan is if they pull out ALL the stops to make it appealing to japan, which i don't see them doing as japanese market trends are opposite to what appealing to the mainstream west is.

and plus, ps4 honestly won by default last gen.

It's also very huge, way bigger than even original Xbox which size is always being brought up as one of the reasons why it didn't do well in Japan.
