The fact that the PSVita outsold the N64/Gamecube and was able to reach 50% of PS4's LT sales without any major exclusives or IPs is very telling. No Final Fantasy, no Dragon Quest, no Monster Hunter etc

Another thing that’s telling is the fact none of y’all want to shout out no home console and say NSW is portable and that’s what sells in japan..... then wake up to see that argument is flawed due to NSW lite vs the original sku

This is you arguing with someone else. Who is y'all? The Switch Hybrid is still portable and that can never be taken away, you're not comparing sales of the lite to sales of a TV only Switch. nowhere am I arguing their is no appeal to TV and local multiplayer play when the PS4 still sold 10m units, and local multiplayer games do exceedingly well on the Switch. In any case spending a bit more to get that added benefit and the bigger screen is probably a no brainer for most Japanese gamers.

Its wild anyone is trying to underplay the preference towards portable play in Japan. I have no ears for it. If people defensively feel that means people are undermining Nintendo's success or dismissing Sonys failings then that is an argument they can have with someone who is actually making it...
