How many of these are staying in Japan, really?

This is odd because you could say the same thing is happening to Switch.  If Switch really is that popular wouldn't it be the prime target of exports?  Wouldn't that in and of itself be able to explain its sales retention? 

Switch has far more exports than PS5, it has been the case since its release in 2017. My first Switch was indeed Japanese. It's one of the reasons for Switch relatively weak ROW in comparison with Sony brand 

The case is even with higher exports in absolute numbers an humongous number of Switch units stays in Japan, probably not the case for Playstation
