GTA seems to be a pretty small franchise in Japan, going by Japanese sales its probably smaller than stuff like Pikmin. Something like Splatoon is several leagues above GTA when it comes to popularity in Japan. Its just a totally different gaming market, with different taste than western markets when it comes to games. Western made games in general sell minimal amounts in Japan, which is why Sony has had hard time competing with Nintendo ever since they pivoted to make western style games only.
