ps4 pro poll.png

We'll be frank: it's barely worth reporting on these latest Japanese charts. PlayStation had a very quiet post-Christmas period, with console sales dropping off and no new software to speak of. Only three PlayStation titles stuck around in the top 20: Earth Defense Force 5, Call of Duty: WWII, and Yakuza: Kiwami 2.

Meanwhile, the standard PlayStation 4 dipped to under 40,000 units, and the PS4 Pro fell to around 12,000 units. It's worth remembering, of course, that the post-Christmas period isn't really a time for big sales figures -- every other major platform saw drops, too.

Let's hope the New Year livens things up, eh?
