It is great when you compare it to everywhere else. Let me ask you this, why did the 3ds sold twice as much as the wii in japan when the wii sold 100m worldwide compare to the 3ds 75m? I know you are the biggest nintendo fan but lets not pretend japan dont favor handheld over home console

I'm quite certain there are bigger Nintendo fans than me on this forum. I never said Japan didn't love handhelds, but it's not as simple as just portable > console there, as evidenced by PS4 outselling Vita.

At any rate, PS4 is the #4 best selling system worldwide, but it's #13 in Japan. That's not great.

The wii which was a huge success only sold 12m in japan. We probably will never see another home console selling 10m and thats because japan been abandoning home console in favor of handheld. PS3 did 10m and PS4 even with monster hunter, dragon quest and the most popular final fantasy of all ff7 couldnt even help ps4 reach 10m. 9-10m is great for a home console in japan which i think PS5 will be around that mark
