...I don´t think that the PS4 has the software support (yet) to outsell the 3DS on a regular basis.

I don´t think that the PS4 will be the runaway success that revitalises the homeconsole industry like some of the more positive people are predicting.

It's still too early in it's life, so no. Years 2, 3, and 4 though, absolutely.

During few weeks but the 3DS will be ahead after that !

It might, but just on that first week.

 Nope. What Japan centric  games does the PS4 have besides Yakuza? None.

While Yakuza may be the most (only?) popular one, this is not true at all.

No, unless they get like a crazy game such as Monster Hunter, I wouldn't get my hope up against the 3ds.. Initially, yes, but after the hype, down it goes...


Why is the arguement always monster hunter?... You realise uncharted is bigger than MH, right? And one is being made for ps4.

Didn't this just happen this week (week of 11th) without Japan?

PS4 doesn't really have system selling software in Japan this year. Aside from Yakuza Ishin but that's also on PS3. PS4 will probably beat the 3DS for a few weeks and then stabilize under it.

This. I do think it can outsell it world wide, but not in Japan. Definitely not.

In the West. Not in Japan. 3DS has a game for every territory that can compete with the PS4's possible line up, but the 3DS will absolutely decimate it in Japan after the initial launch burst. Enjoy being the top home console. All consoles is a whole different ballgame.
