Why is the PS4 doing so bad in Japan? Not even 10% of the sales are from there

Why is the PS4 doing so bad in Japan? Not even 10% of the sales are from there.

No games nips like on it

No games.

Industry has changed. Nips don't care about home consoles as much anymore.

Japanese people are really smart.

It's the fourth best selling in Japan.
If it's handheld it's gonna sell twice as much, just because it's handheld.
Because Japan uses transportation more than the rest of the world.
They live tight, thus want a gaming console that takes up little space and better if you can play on your way to school/work whatever.
the west have larger houses and want to enjoy it in a sofa or similar.
DON'T compare JP sales to Europe and NA because you're comparing one TINY country to two fucking unions of countries.

Consoles are dead in Japan.

It's still doing bad compared to PS3 sales.

How the FUCK did Xbox 360 get over a million sales in Japan?

>How the FUCK did Xbox 360 get over a million sales in Japan?

Idolm@ster when it was a Xbox 360 exclusive

Not enough masturbation material being passed as "games".

Overseas personnel

Most of japs are crazy about mobiles or handhelds. No one is interested in console. They think Switch is a handheld, so sold well. PS4 is just a console. It is outdated.

>Not enough cinematic adventures being pased as "games"
Shiggitydigity

I wonder, when they started to westernize their games didn't they realize that their jap audiences would just jump ship?

>DON'T compare JP sales to Europe and NA because you're comparing one TINY country to two fucking unions of countries.
Japan has a population of about 127 million people

The Japs have no time to play games at home, you filthy neet

360 had a lot of weird exclusives from JP developers since Microsoft was trying to break into the region at the time
It failed but hey, there you go.

Many japs get 3D sickness, so they don’t like to play 3D games on big screen.

They only care about mobile garbage.

Man do Europeans eat up Sony's shit.

But the PS4 is about to outsell the Vita even in Japland. Sooner or later the number would be over 10 millions.

japs are extremely casual
there's a reason mobile games are massively popular there

Literally because of FIFA

Waiting for Monster Hunter World.

They play mostly phones and the kids are buying Nintendo products. Most adults don't get shit like a Switch because its considered for children.

Toddlers are so delusional they think Japan is the only place that matters.

>only place thats keeping the shitty xbone alive is amurica
Truly the land of the free and the stupid.

Japanese market only buys portables anymore.

Because Sony only cares about the Western market and don't make any jrpgs. Look at their library, it's all TPS cinematic games.

did wii u really sell less than vita

japanese aren't interested in games unless they happen to be dressed-up slot machines accessible on their phones.

Yes.
