Sony started last year with a deluge of PlayStation 4 releases in Japan, and it looks like it's adopting the exact same strategy in 2016. The marketing tactics have changed, however: the platform holder has just uploaded a video featuring a handful of the device's upcoming titles set to some crunk beats. It's probably the dumbest thing that we've seen all week.
Ignoring the god awful rap for a few seconds, though, we do reckon that it's assembled a pretty powerful portfolio here: Dragon Quest Builders, Street Fighter V, Yakuza Kiwami, and Dark Souls III are all likely to sell well, and will probably help propel hardware numbers at the same time. Maybe it should have come up with a better advertising campaign, though?

An Amazing trailer and line up of games! SOME SICK BEATS YO~
@stocko ZOKU! ZOKU!
That selection is ridiculous. I'd buy just about every game in that video if I lived in Japan.
Speaking of which, here's hoping Gundam Breaker 3 gets released over here.
It was a god awful rap.........but in the best way possible.
Good trailer.
with these and more heavy hitters like Persona 5 and XV along the way, this year ps4 will hopefully increase its sale volume in Japan. I love you Japan but mobile telephone gaming is just sad
Love the rap lol. Kinda shocking the fact ps4 hasn't sold well in japan they're more interested in handheld gaming
It is a very strong lineup. Here's hoping it results in an upswing of sales like last year's selection.
Tofu Beats, really? Titan looks awesome. Dark souls III is like haunting of backlog past and present, ugh.
Anyone know what that baseball game is called.
The song is so catchy. I especially like of the 2nd part song. That part where it seem like one of the Titans was dancing to the beat was hilarious. lol
