In half? PS5 is at around 4m sold in Japan as of now. FF16 is at around 400k physical and if we include digital it's around 700-800k (Square did announce over 50% of FF16 sold were digital). So if there are only 2m PS5 in Japan then isn't the attach rate for FF16 seems ridiculous? That's around 40%. I saw a post here not long ago saying 30% of playstation users are subscribed to PS plus extra or premium and that's even higher in Japan.  Also higher digital rate and replaying free upgraded PS4 games on PS5

Yep, but that doesn't mean the ratio in Japan is 50%. UK for example was 57%, US I imagine would be even higher. Japan I suspect would be lower based off trend. 

Beyond that I don't think a 35% attach rate is ridiculous. The Final Fantasy XV sold around 800k on a userbase of around 3.2m. FF selling 600k on a userbase of 2m is not unrealistic imo. No shade but what else are Japanese playstation owners going to buy this summer? 

What trend are we talking about? Didn't totw have a 50% digital rate in Japan? A few here posted it sold over 2m first week in Japan but only 1m physical.  You would think digital is much higher on PS5 . Why would digital be lower in Japan? Their internet is fast and their homes are small just makes more sense they buying digital than owning physical boxes in their homes. Anyways 35-40% attach rate for a final fantasy game just seems too high. The best selling game animal crossing has a 35-40% attach rate
