With third party stuff, or at least the big AAA stuff like say Final Fantasy, I think it's also a matter of the Japanese audience losing interest because the main ones just stopped coming to their platform of choice.

Current mainline FF hasn't been on a popular platform there since the PS2, same for Resident Evil, etc.

A whole generation of Japanese (those who were DS/PSP/3DS/Switch kids) just grew up without those games, and so don't have a nostalgic attachment to them the way that Millennials who grew up on SNES/PS1/PS2 do.

Come on brother, both PS3 and PS4 sold around 10M each there, how were they not popular? That's like 1/12 of their population owning one.

Not being the lead platform there doesn't equal not being popular, at all.

Popular relatively, like the same gen as those DS sold 32m, 3DS 24m, and Switch 36m.
