I suggest as well to look at things logically to ascertain why PS games might not chart.

2022 is much more different than 2014 or 2007.

Media create 1000 from 2014 or Media create 500 from 2007 pretty much tells us the same thing.

You mean Nintendo sales is big again just like the past and Sony becomes more and more irrelevant in JP?

Basically that Nintendo with a big console has had dominant streaks in Japan before. Sony without a handheld console is definitely more and more irrelevant in Japan.

But other big takeaways to consider: Sony's new consoles will be harder to gauge due to digital, Support from PS3---->PS4------>PS5 will probably see relatively little change, Sony/Nintendo/MS will struggle to have big games during console transitional periods due to dropping dedicated Handhelds.
