Can a mod step in and talk to the posters disrupting this topic?
Cannibalizing?...
As for undermining PS4's efforts in Japan, maybe. I mean, the Switch is Japan's go-to platform now when I think it was the PS4 previously.
I blame those damn squid kids. They're too adorable for Japan to resist.

It's crazy how I create a thread to stop this particular topic detailing the MC thread yet these retailers all move over here to do the same.
It can't be that hard to read AN OP and directly comment on the Issue?

What else do you do to the things you kill other than eat them?
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
Shouldn't PS4 be up due to Dragon Quest? It's a much bigger IP in Japan than FFXV and of course everyone would rather play it on the most powerful platform.

Yeah, I read your OP and asked for a source. Look at your title, it's in quotations, which means that someone had to have said it, yet you haven't provided me a link.

Yeah it looks like it maybe foe the time being. Just the latest craze. If Nintendo cannot keep the hits coming though it will soon end. |
Okay I'll "stay on topic". Regarding the "topic", cannibalizing isn't the correct terminology. Destroying is more like it. Switch is destroying the PS4 in Japan. There I said it. Even if Nintendo just released Pokemon on Switch for its lifetime, it'll outsell the PS4 in Japan. It's just the way that the market is headed over there. Japanese gamers just don't care for a console only experience. Hell, if Switch was only a console it'd probably sell like the Gamecube or Wii U at best.
There's no need to play footsies with a topic like this, call it like it is. PS has lost Japan to Nintendo. Doesn't mean they're doing bad, doesn't mean that one company is inherently "better" than the other. I'd be insane to question PS4's dominance in Europe and try to spin it in Nintendo's favor. It just doesn't work.

It was up in Q3 thanks to it. But last q4 had slim, pro, price cut and FFXV.

The 3DS had something to say about that, ultimately.

You're actually not on topic. The isn't ps4 vs 3ds. This is highlighting the real reasons why q4 2016 is higher then q4 2017 for ps4.
