Forums - Sales - The PS4 is a MAJOR flop in Japan - we need to talk about it

admit it, ps4 sell that badly in japan cause there are no game that Japanese want. That's the reason Sony delay its launch date in Japan. We have to wait till FFXV release date to fully answer the question: "PS4 is a flop or not" :)

So we need to wait 2-3 years more? Maybe we can judge PS4 sales in Japan only after Last Guardian will be on the shelves?

@OP:


It's Sony we're talking about, like Ninty it must be d0m3d in every region in some way: elsewhere it's Vita, in Japan it's PS4.

Too soon to release PS4 on Japan. They are not ready for next gen yet.



Imagine if the PS4 would have released in November in Japan...The weekly sales would have been horrible at this point... Why does sony not have any game from their Japanese studios releasing soon? Legend dragoon 2 or ape escape? Maybe nobody care about this games?

I kind of expected that MS would not invest a lot of money in Japanese games this generation but it is like Sony is not doing it either? At this point they rely on third pary....



Decline of consoles>PS4 saviour status, I guess you could say this made perfect sense

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Surely the fact that is has very few exclusives at the moment is a big hitter for its sales too. I only bought my Xbox One because it had games I wanted NOW and in the future all my friends will be playing it anyway.
