Yes, countering the "Nintedoom" argument with "Microdoom in Japan" is much better...

Japan is mostly a handheld space

This does little to appease Sony/PlayStation fans.

Off topic post and obvious flamebait. Do you need to be reported before you correct this?

Japan is NOT irrelevant whatsoever. Home consoles sell less than handhelds do, but that doesn't mean they're non existent all of a sudden! PS3 sales north of 9,2 million over there is 1/8 of the total sales, that's very relevant.

WiiU has no third party games in Japan, that's the most relevant statement.

I'm a fan of the not-so-popular console in Japan and I call it relevant. What are you talking about? The greatest gems in my gaming library are made in Japan. The fact that the console is totally irrelevant in the East didn't prevent it to get them.
