Weekly Japanese Sales: 03/20 - 03/26

Final Fantasy XII is still on top this week even though a new Pokon game is released, but the surprising thing about this week's software chart is that many DS games that remained in the chart have actually gone up in sales over the previous week.

Software: 01. PS2 - Final Fantasy XII (Square-Enix): 237,678 (2,001,944) 02. NDS - Pokon Ranger: Diamond & Pearl e-no Michi (Nintendo): 193,337 (*NEW*) 03.

NDS - Motto Otona no DS Training/Brain Training 2 (Nintendo): 76,911 (1,648,640) 06. PS2 - Dynasty Warriors 4 Empires (Koei): 54,360 (*NEW*) 07. NDS - Eigo Zuke/English Training (Nintendo): 46,411 (703,156) 08. NDS - Otona no DS Training/Brain Training (Nintendo): 46,223 (1,768,819) 09.

YTD/LTD NDS - 1,003,506/6,650,459 PSP - 515,550/3,198,513 NDS Lead - 487,956/3,451,946

DS Lite sales continue to improve once again and PS2 sales have died down a bit since the launch of Final Fantasy XII last week. A lot of new software has also made it into the charts this week but I think the most notiable thing is that all the DS titles that were previously in the chart have actually gone up in sales this week likely due to the DS Lite shipments increasing.
