Yeah I know. But with Nintendo and Sony systems, historically, Japanese pacing has always been extremely indicative of their ongoing success, and your chart also very distinctly shows the PS5 lead diminishing rapidly. At the pace things are going, when that chart is expanded to 9 weeks, PS4 will be ahead, and I foresee it staying that way.

It’s also important to note that PS4 didn’t launch in Japan until months later. PS5 includes Japanese sales already, whereas PS4’s so far would not.

This is the primary reason I think the PS5 will do about as good, if not a little worse. One can make many arguments over PS5 shipments for both sides, but in the end we will have to wait and see.
