I initially said ps4 has much better storage then all of them.  Whether other things I've said is true or not that fact still remains.  And it's ps4 lighting up the digital charts not vita.

Nintendo fans hate the tiny amount of space on their devices limiting their digital appeal.

Lets not go there when there is something called the vita.

Kerotan said:
The vita has much better storage [than Nintendo devices - implied].

SpokenTruth said:
How is 1 GB of storage better than 32 GB of storage?

Kerotan said:
I'm talking vita vs 3DS for the handhelds...

SpokenTruth said:
Damn, that's one hell of a goal post move but you do know the 3DS also has 1 GB of internal storage, don't you?

Kerotan said:
The fact remains.  Playstation (mainly ps4) DOMIMATES the digital console sales in Japan,  especially % Wise to the install base. 

 There are two main reasons:
 
1. PS4 has better internal storage.

2. PS4 average player is older and more likely to buy a game digital then a parent, child or teenager.

SpokenTruth said:
What the hell does that have to do with what you initially said?   You didn't just move the goal posts, you're playing on a whole different field.


^This is what you said.   I see now why CGI-Quality is asking you and T-Bone to move on.  I will be doing the same.

Nintendo fans do and Vita fans do also.  But Playstation fans on ps4 have much better storage and an older playerbase.  Hence why they dominate th digital charts.

Model Estimated number of sales per week on January 16 January 16 Week composition ratio (%) Estimated sales in 2016 Fiscal 2016 composition ratio (%)
PS4 33, 616 44.7% 1,634,579 38.7%
PS3 413 0.5% 35,582 0.8%

Is the "Estimated Sales in 2016" the total amount they sold in 2016? Does that mean the 3DS + 2DS beat the PS4?

I think it's fiscal year, i.e. April-April.

Yep.  It means ps4 was the top selling home console sku in Japan for the first time since ps2 in 2004



Cause im not sure if MC of Famitsu shared about the top selling games in 2016 and the total hardware, and if someone made a thread on it.

Because im arguing facts so thats now a bad thing (and him moving post/etc)? Read the whole thing before replying at my post next time

 

Edit: Even if me and kero are going at it, there are others too posting toward it, yet you quote me... Is there a problem sir?

The problem is you two go at it a lot - and then you're reported. Doesn't matter what the argument is about. This happens a lot. So now it's time for both of you to move on!

Is that what you do? Come on and ask people to move along just based on reports? Doesn't matter if the argument is constructive or not?

Not according to VGC. PS3 was top in 2011 & 2012 while PS4 was top in 2014 & 2015.

Sorry I said that wrong.  I mean the first time a home console was the top selling console sku in Japan. So this includes handhelds.

Does not compute.  Jrnation just showed the 3DS+2DS having beaten the PS4 in Japan.

And you san't say single SKU because that doesn't break it down between PS4, PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro.

The ps4 standard not including the Pro outsold the 3DS last year. First time since ps2 in 2004.
