As you can see it is a slow week for software sales this week so Brain Training 2 managed to make it's way back to the top. A few new baseball titles manage to make it in but nothing else released during the week managed to make the charts. Next week's charts should be about the same except Starfi 4 should make its debut, however it's the following week that should really change the way the software charts look. On the hardware front the DS and DS Lite really are both holding up quite well in Japan and the shipments seem to be going smoothly now, hopefully it continues that way.

  • Well for a handheld that didn't launch this year it should be expected.
