Seriously though, Japan should have been put in 2013 while the other 4/5 should have been in feb. Hopefully sony knows something about those markets and hit it big.

They would not have a singel Japanese title ready for the Japanese launch if they release it this year.

Whats the count now? 37 vs 14?



The issue with Japan are Japanese titles ready for 2013... not production or console available.

I don`t have any idea about gaming market in the rest of Asia did they like western game or hate them like Japan,witch are the biggest games in Asia?



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

Totally understandable, when you consider that they will most probably just launch with the Western launch line up in English. They have no Japanese centric software save for Knack, which is not that well tailored for that market either, ready for 2013. Instead they will launch with a lot of Japanese games just 3 months later.
This is pretty big news in the fight between the Big 2 cause going by rumours PS4 might have a year headstart in those markets over the Xbone.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

So? Hong Kong will have the same games japan would have had. You release the ps4 in december then stagger the launches each month. Im sure thousands of Japanese gamers will be able to find a title they can enjoy before MGS, GT, or FF comes out. They do buy other games like GTA i dont know why you guys think they would only buy a console for japanese games.



Production must be going very well for Sony. 37 countries is a lot.

GT and StarCraft I know is bigger in Asia... I don't if it helped you.
