If we are talking about ps5 in a hardware conversation, i don't think alot of people are taking the fact that scalping of the system between 2021-2023 in Japan and the true sales of it afterward. Will ps5 sell more than 5mil? Almost guaranteed, 9mil-10mil? No chance. 7mil seems like a good target lifetime but that's only a partial explanation to what REALLY sold in japan. There are 2mil+ ps5 consoles sold in Japan, out of those consoles how much of them are actually in Japan? Does 7mil or around that justify the software sales that it will have? As of now the 2 things we know about but not how much is how many consoles are scalped and how much of the Japanese market is consumed by f2p games (like GI for example) Software doesn't back it up in a positive light, we know FF and MHW2 will be exclusives (MHW2 I know XBS but its japan) but.... How much of those 2 franchises will decline from ps4 games? FFXV and MHW sold 1.5mil and 4.0mil respectively. What are you expecting from FF16 and MHW2? DQ will have a nsw or nsw2 sku, you think the split will be close and if so how come (we are talking about a multi million franchise) PS5 will get P6, Both FFVIIR and I'm sure other big ga,es like KH4, etc. But that's not stopping the overall decline and I don't even think there will be 5mil ps5 lifetime that stay in japan (not to get confused with unique owners) |
Dragon Quest could always pull a MH World and skip Switch if Sony moneyhat it. We know it's UE5 so no way it's not on PS5. As for FF16 and MH Next, it will depend on what the supply situation is at the time, but they should sell a ton of PS5s. All of Square and Capcom's AAA games for the next almost-a-decade will come to PS5 too. We'll probably never know how many PS5s actually stay in Japan but the total sold there will definitely pass 7 million. Current sales are the result of severe shortages which won't last forever. |
Hasnt DQ always gone to whatever system has the highest in sales by default?
