Japan is where it all goes down though. See PS3.

Japan to PS3 is what US to the 360 is. So it's nothing special.

Actually no, the 360 has outsold the Wii in US. PS3 hasn't done that in Japan.

@OP: I think people just need to stop denying that the PS4 will sell better than the Wii U. Its simply a freak of nature right now and that isn't slowing down.

And you base this on?

Until we see some Japan centric software for the PS4, I wouldn't count PS4 crushing the Wii U as a given.

Wait for the threads:

"PS4 outsold Wii by 10%"

"PS4 outsold Wii by 20%"

....

"PS4 outsold Wii by 400%"

"Wii U does a 'Michael Bay'".

At least some can made a thread about how Wii U is ahead of PS4 in Japan

Wii U Japanese 3rd party is doing horribly. PS4 will be the focus of Japanese console developers.

How many Japanese 3rd party exclusives are announced for Wii U? Can't really find anything other than Puyo Puyo Tetris, lol. Nintendo's on their own. You guys really think a console can sell well without sustained title releases?

is Wii u getting anything big in Japan? im just asking, cause im sure FF15 and KH3 will move some consoles, yes they are a ways away and yes they are multiplat, but if we're talking strictly PS4 they might as well be exclusive
