The video game hardware market in Japan was valued at 224 billion Japanese yen in fiscal year 2020. While there was no long-term increase expected in the case of hardware revenues, the total value of the video game market in Japan was projected to grow further in the coming years. The increase was said to come about by the growth of social games, which was treated as a separate category next to video game software and video game hardware by the source.
