I really don't think 23 million is much considering it sold 160 million ww and  it had a monopoly with every game being exclusive with zero competition.  Obviously it was gonna be downhill cause that wasn't gonna happen again. Just for reference nes and super nes did 17.5 and 19.5 million considering console sales doubled from that era WW, the amount Japanese exclusives ps2 had, i would hardly call that impressive or optimistic for sony future in japan at least a traditional home console. 

A home console selling 23 million in a country of 125m people that historically prefered handhelds IS huge. You clearly don't know what you're talking about if you think otherwise. I don't know what else to tell you.

Like I said ps2 was basically the perfect home console interms of basically everything, it had a monopoly and tons of Japanese support exclusives selling 4 million more then nes with the competition like GC and Xbox sold nothing and the market more then doubled just shows that the peak for home consoles there, it's all about growth and there Was no growth left in japan. Sony trying  harder to please japan would a foolish.
