The west is the important market to dominate in the gaming market. Japan gaming has been dead long ago.

Japan is a dying video game market. The West is what matters the most and that is where a game console must dominate to win and is exactly what Playstation is doing.

I don't understand why you spam every single Famitsu sales thread with this. If you think it makes Nintendo look bad that they ''only sell in Japan'', its not like Nintendo hasn't sold a ton of consoles in the west as well. Soon Nintendo will start selling millions of consoles in the west with the Switch 2 as well. But yes it will be a big advantage for the Switch 2 that it will sell tens of millions of consoles in Japan alone, something PS will never be able to do in the future.

To put that into perspective, its likely that the fact that Switch 2 will sell big numbers in Japan is what will push it into higher lifetime sales than PS5. Because PS higher popularity in Europe is not enough to make up the vast difference in sales in the Japanese market for Sony.

Pretty sure that has to do with trolling or console warring in some capacity considering what he's blating is just not true.
