The trophy list is more than a trinket system, for many like myself it acts as an offical record of what games I've beaten and acts as a chart through video game progression as a whole.
@get2sammyb "Piscatella is breaking up SKUs in this chart, so it’s possible the PS5 performed better overall when you combine all of its different SKUs, including Disc and Digital options as well as the PS5 Pro."
@SeaDaVie It's not an opinion you have, you are using the word wrong; end of story.
There are 195 countries in the world, for Japan to be one of the least important in terms of sales then at least half of those countries (95) would have to spend more money on PlayStation products than Japan does.
But they don't. Japan is something like the 11th country in terms of spending for Sony.
So 11 out of 195 doesn't in anyway qualify the statment:
"Japan is literally one of the least important markets in the world."

Re: Disappointment as PS2 All-Timer SoulCalibur 3 Launches on PS5, PS4 without Trophies
@Oram77 But I beat it years ago many times so this is just a wasted opportunity of a release.
I can't add this to my offical record.
The biggest joke here is that retroachievements(dot)org does support it!

Re: PS5 Sales Collapse in Japan as Sony Readies Overdue Rescue Plan
@SeaDaVie
There are 195 counties in the world, and there are not 97 more important markets to PlayStation than Japan. So saying:
"Japan is literally one of the least important markets in the world."
That's literally incorrect.

Re: Disappointment As Tekken 3 Is the Latest PS1 Classic to Launch without Trophies
@LordOfTurnips This is my point.
Namco really should of added Trophies to this. For people that don't want them, it's no added stress.
For the people that do want tem, it's more sales for Namco. It's silly not do to it.
Re: Disappointment As Tekken 3 Is the Latest PS1 Classic to Launch without Trophies
@LordOfTurnips I have about 7 different ways to play Tekken 3 on devices I own, what incentive do I have to buy the PS5 version?
Re: Disappointment As Tekken 3 Is the Latest PS1 Classic to Launch without Trophies
Not bothered with emulation?
What do you think the PS5 is doing to play PS1 games?
Re: Disappointment As Tekken 3 Is the Latest PS1 Classic to Launch without Trophies
@Decoy_Snake You buy a TV out lead for your phone and then bluetooth a controller for you phone.
Instant RetroStation on your living room TV!
Let's be real here, retroachievements have done a better job than actual Namco because on an Emulator, achievements for Tekken 3 are supported.
