"It's simple," Kobayashi replied (through an interpreter). "The PS3 still has a fairly large market in Japan, but in the West, particularly the United States, people have just moved on to PS4. The PS3 market has almost diminished to nothing."

 

Thanks to Destructoid.

PS3 is never gonna be forgotten. It's the best and most selling console besides PS2.

I know, but PS3's prime is over, so I'm saying goodbye.
