Tbh that's the 80s and why these companies all exist today, Japanese economy was kinda peerless at the time.
You're also forgetting the likes of Toshiba, Toyota & Fujitsu, who are also still very dominant in their respective areas.
Fujitsu is the one least attached to the consumer market, but what people don't realise is a surprisingly large number of government supercomputer systems across the world run on Fujitsu systems. They don't really have any competitors in that space any more.
I'm amazed how much stuff is apparently made by Panasonic. I'm fairly sure I had to install some Panasonic automatic door sensors at one point.
Japan and South Korea could probably take over the entire global manufacturing industry and no one would notice since they basically make everything already anyway.

Damn it, that was a jif. Didn't mean to post animated crap in the comments. But that album is still pretty racist.
