You have to take it into perspective: The drop from PS2 to PS3 was ~100% in most markets, not just Japan. But the PS4 on the other hand improved from the PS3 in almost all markets, with Japan being the sole exception that we know of. |
ah but you forget, psp exists, as basically a cheaper/personal alternative to the ps3, ESPECIALLY considering the massive 600$ launch price of the home console.
ps2 to ps3/psp is actually a 10 milion unit growth, while ps3/psp to ps4/vita is, currently, something around a 40% drop off. and this is just globally....
in japan, its even clearer, ps2 to ps3/psp was a Growth of a MASSIVE 50%. ps3/psp to ps4/vita is a 100% drop off, and if ps5 sells just a bit under the ps4, thats another 50% drop off....
