Not the PS4 doing less than 1k and being outsold by the 3DS . It was already practically dead but this feels like the final nail in the coffin.

Interesting that Tsushima got a boost, did it get a discount or something?

When PS4 is below the 3DS..... Holy Shit! What a drop!
Nintendo is just dominating Japan!



Pocky Lover Boy! 

3DS > PS4???
Does Sony even care at this point?
I get that they’re shifting focus to PS5, but this is ridiculous.

Stock. GoT finally got additional stock.

Same for the PS4. Its sales would not set the world on fire but it could easily do 5-10k per week if Sony would provide the stock for that.

Didn't know Tsushima had stock problems. Great for Sony that there's high demand for the game.

NS - 26

PS4 - 4



So did Sony quietly discontinued the PS4 in Japan? Because I have no other idea how that number can be so low.



The PS4 is really lacking games that have similar legs as Nintendo. The top 30 is just insane amount of Switch games.



Pocky Lover Boy! 

Human Fall Flat must have sold its initial shipment(which was probably around 20K by now), wonder how long the indie game can remain in the charts.
