Not surprising that the only consoles pictured are Knack bundles.


It's not a bundle, Knack was given for free to all Ps4 buyers in Japan I believe as an apology for launching in the west first.

Just gonna say if the PS4 can't get the Japanese away from their 3DS/Vita/PSP's Microsoft will be in no rush to every grace them with the X1, would literally not be worth translating the OS into Jap, nevermind localizing anything else.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

Really? Well no wonder its still in stock... You don't give people an epic console with a shit game even if it is free... They should have rather gave them KZ or Yukuza or Something that the Japanese love... Not something that not only doesn't appeal to Japanese people, but something that doesn't appeal to anyone unless they love cutting themselves with a toothpick

Its basically like saying Sorry, here is the world's shittest game for you to play to show how little we care

Lol funny these stories are coming from people outside of japan and they're Nintendo fans. I never understood Nintendo and Sony fans trashing each other's systems. There really is no argument. Ps4 is going to destroy wiiu. What's the point of this thread? You can post so many anti sony or
Microsoft post here. But post something negative about Nintendo and it's breaking the rules lol


Yeah gooch is such a nintendo fanboy.  I bet he's that annoying guy on facebook that just keeps spinning every bit of news pro Wii U. Heck today he probably posted pictures of PS4 in stock at his walmart and acted like it was selling horribly in America.

Massive stock confirmed :P

Also a lot of people probably bought the digital version which is not tracked and has infinite units available.

Japanese technology always surprising me. You can even download a gaming console now.

Lol I'm just looking at most of the people posting negative things. It's easy to click on someone's profile. Some are posting actual links with facts of the hardware being sold out. Like I said I just find the negative sony, Nintendo or Microsoft post funny

Hope Sony had a good launch. Japan console sales need a kick start and PS4 is only console that can do that. Playstation is the jewel in the crown for the Sony Brand now so they need continued success of PS4.
