There's no point in trying to sugarcoat it: these latest Japanese sales charts really aren't all that interesting. Two new PlayStation 4 titles made it into the software top ten, with hack and slash crossover Musou Stars entering in second place while the terribly named Blue Reflection: Sword of the Girl Who Dances in Illusions jumped into third. Both titles sold less than 50,000 copies on Sony's home system. Just goes to show how quiet the current software charts are, we suppose.
As for the current-gen console itself, it's still holding steady at around 25,000 units.

sucker punch New ip is coming to e3
oh yeah.New ip coming from sucker punch. at this year e3
@playstation1995 new vector. Unit ip word to your mother e3 up.word dog
i know it's japan but look how many dead or dying systems are outselling the XB1, the Vita, the Wii U and the PS3 all outsold it
they REALLY must not be fans of the system over there
@walrusballs hahaha.word up son.sucker punch New game e3 .oh yeh
@playstation1995 lol ur comments are funny. What's this new ip tho?
@FullbringIchigo
They're not at all which is why to me it makes zero sense when devs bring games like RE VII or the FF VII remake to Xbox but avoid Nintendo.
@Gamer83 FFVII isn't coming to xbox, at least they haven't confirmed it, Just PS4 and P.C as Sony still hold the licence for FFVII on console as they are the original publisher, (they published it for Square)
but while Xbox is dead in Japan it's pretty active in America and the U.S is a HUGE market so i can see why they would even if the PS4 is outselling it but like i said it's unlikely it's coming to xbox at all, if it was then wouldn't games like FFXIV, FFXHD or the PSN FFVII have also been released on there?
