All japan?

Or chain of store?

You taking one chain of store and appliance this of all japan. One moment and appliance in all year?

Realy?

The software, we have data, demonstrates the abysmal software performance, worse than Vita and Wiiu.

PS5 game sales are informed by how many PS5's actual sit in japan. Limited hardware stock limits software sales. We already know from experts that demand in Japan far, far exceeds supply. There's obviously a core base of Playstation gamers several million strong who haven't been able to get a system. PS5 could easily sell 200k in one week if it was able to supply as many systems, but obviously it wouldn't be able to keep that as a baseline for very long as it will meet the demands of that 2-3m core audience (excluding international scalpers) 

Switch has already sold to 20m people in japan, for this reason there is probably not enough pent up demand to sell 200k in an ordinary week without a major release or holiday.

So no proof outside the reality is ps5 software sales is terrible regardless of reasons.

Your proof is for 1 or 2 store? 30x of 100 is 3000.

At this point you guys are trolling. No one is trying to provide "proof" for an estimation of demand, I didn't even use the higher value in the quote. I'm curious why you believe this store is an anomaly. Obsessing over software doesn't make sense because people don't buy games for platforms they don't have, can't access. If you have any better data to meassure demand for PS5 I'd like to see it, but otherwise lets be reasonable, all available evidence points to PS5 demand in Japan far outstrips demand, a real retailer states for them it is upwards of 30x. All the while, we know current demand means nothing in relation to LT sales, a distinction which is why I think its so hard for some of you to believe PS5 is in demand right now.
