Worse than Wii U, huh? So is it your prediction that the PS5 is going to do less than 3.3M in Japan? 

It's hilarious to see people talk about the Wii U being ahead of the PS5 currently, yet conveniently forget that the Wii U was heavily front loaded and completely collapsed later on, while the PS5 is constantly closing the gap and will most likely sell 2.5x-3x more than the Wii U. It is currently outpacing the PS4.

Japan has been moving away from dedicated home console HW for decades, now. There's really no point in acting like the PS5's performance comes as a big shock and PS is in trouble. Even the mighty Wii sold only 12.77M in Japan. Japanese devs are going to continue to support PS because their games are selling. I mean even if you wish to pretend the digital ratio is lower than everywhere else in the world and Japanese people are just buying PS5s for them as art pieces, those games are selling elsewhere in the world.

My guy, the software sales for PS5 in Japan are terrible. Don't know what else to tell you.

Also @src Zhuge said that there is good indication of that 1 million PS5s sold in Japan, actually many are being shipped overseas. 

Zhuge doesn't have digital data either. He probably came to that conclusion by only looking at physical.

12. [NSW] Tsukihime: A Piece of Blue Glass Moon – 6,137 / 85,439
24. [PS4] Tsukihime: A Piece of Blue Glass Moon – 2,564 / 80,042

That is a total of  165,481 physical and 74519 digital  wich is 31.05% of 240,000.

                                                                    

@Chicho @src 
Wouldnt digital be a bit less considering that 240k likely includes any copies sitting in the store shelves?

I put the < sign. Not much less, since the sell through on both versions seems to be good.
