You said it.  

People are not saying that, they are just some members, probably very jelous of PS4 selling numbers in NA and Europe, where the Market really matters. PS4 continues to sell a lot better than XBone in NA and previous week PS4 sold 4 times as much as XBone in Europe ! Also, previous week PS4 sold more than WiiU in Japan and in the Global is squashing its competitors, as usual.  

We are now in the ''very low season''(March,April, May); videogames history teaches that these are the months with the lowest selling numbers, so it's normal to see lower figures this time of the year.  If you add that Japanese are not anymore into Consoles gaming since 'the game experience' shifted a lot to the west, so much more west oriented, and that PS4 was just released 3 months ago in Japan and no big sellers are available, and you have the reason why it's not selling very well. But also WiiU, which is the most 'japanese' console among the others, is selling less than PS4 !  I'm amazed that some can't yet realize that and continue to start laughable Threads about PS4 and Japan.

because some people have to much salt in their diet.

But I love Salt :'(

Despite calls of the console being doomed in Japan being premature, PlayStation 4 is doing terrible numbers in Japan at the moment:

As poorly as the 3DS, Vita, and Wii U sold in their first 13 weeks, the PS4 is selling even worse. And as everyone has said, it's because the system is hugely lacking in games that appeal to Japanese audiences. But I don't think it's as simple as saying "Just wait until Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy XV!", as those are two games with no release dates coming from a company infamous for its long development times.

For now, and for the forseeable future, the PS4 is not going to sell well... because the titles releasing this year are not the ones that sell systems. A bunch of Western games and niche Japanese titles are not going to reverse the trend of the PS4 selling poorly in that reigon. Sony was/is so focused on grabbing the Western markets that it's either forgotten or ignored the eastern one. 2014 is going to be rough on the PS4 as far as Japanese sales go, and there's not much being done to turn that around.

These "DOOMED" posts are tiresome.

Look at the list of upcoming games for the PS4 in Japan. Would you blame anybody if they didn't buy the console? There's nothing they like on it.

The console is very much geared to an American audience and the Japanese aren't going to buy the PS4 at this time. Once a good amount of Japanese software arrives, sales will increase. Right now, three months in, there's nothing to play. Let's wait until the Japan-centric stuff arrives. If the console doesn't sell once Kingdom Hearts III or Phantom Pain arrives, then...

There seem to be a lot of people who think every country has the same taste in video games.

Because praising the PS4 sales in the rest of the world became boring?

Because WiiU will look slightly less floppy?

Because teh hype?
