Sony seems to be basically waving the white flag in Japan at this point.
I get that they're prioritizing the West, but if we assume that shipped = sold, not even having 2k consoles available in the whole country during a holiday season week is not a good sign, nor is the absence of a single PS5 game from the top 30 software more than a year after launch.
It's all well and good to focus on your biggest market, but putting so little effort into a still significant market where you used to sell over 20 million units per system and have a very competitive software presence doesn't seem wise.
