NSW2 in Japan could be very massive…potentially even more massive than NSW. (1) Nintendo isn’t coming off their deepest state of cultural irrelevancy as they were in early-2017, they’ve got a massive leg up with NSW2 compared to NSW right out the gate. (2) Mainline entries of all these very popular Japanese titles like Final Fantasy, Persona, Metaphor (i.e. JRPGs), Monster Hunter, etc., will finally arrive on Nintendo systems with minimal compromises. (3) Pokémon, Animal Crossing, Splatoon will be running on what will likely be a more powerful version of a PS4 Pro (JP will go nuts over this lol). (4) PS5 costs too much for the Japanese consumer, and is only getting more expensive it seems.
Of course…NSW2 will likely not experience a similar period of mania as seen with NSW during the COVID years, so it certainly isn’t a guarantee. Matter of fact, I question whether NSW2 will even match NSW sales figures…but this is speculation on a system we know literally nothing about lol.
