People can finally stop saying console gaming is dead in Japan.
Haha, same as WiiU!
Damn, beating everyone´s expectations.

launch numbers isn't the measure of anything. first-year sales are, and i bet it'd be huge. every now and again we get the "consoles are dying" or "japanese gaming abandons consoles" or some other bullcrap.
So what would that make ps4 worldwide now? 6 million?
The problem is that they had decent launch line-up (DW8, Ryu ga gotoku, FFXIV beta) but the line-up after that is almost nothing. There is FFXIV launching in April but its not gonna be a big impact.
They really need to announce games for Japanese audience at this year's TGS.
Japan really doesn't like consoles anymore do they?
lol I guess you didn't read the Japanese launch thread.

They matter a bit when there is nothing on the horizon for the system.
Sounds good, anyone have numbers to compare to other console launches? The PS2 did almost twice those numbers, but in a week, right?
Oh, hmm. Still probably indicates they guessed demand about right, but PS2 or even Wii this definitely isn't.If the rumors of 350k shipped.
That's a pretty good number.
Only two were better than the PS4's sales, so I guess it's not that bad. Much, much better than the PS3.1998.11.27 [Sega Dreamcast] (¥29.800) - 101.490 (3 days)
