Dragonball Z Sparking! (Budokai Tenkaichi) tops the charts this week, proving how strong the franchise still is in Japan. The Super Mario Bros. re-re-release is still doing well and could very well reach a million copies with it's previous release along-side the other Famicom Mini titles, it's total sales including the previous release is now 800,288.
The charts look pretty similar to last week overall, with the exception of DBZ and GB Micro. On another note, Gunstar Super Heroes was also release in Japan on the 6th and did not even make the charts which is very sad and hopefully receives more recognition here in the west.

Oh snap, PSP is catching up in weekly sales...
Not really. The DS hasn't had any major releses in the last few weeks, while the PSP has had plenty (in addition to new color). The PSP got stomped.
Yes it seems that the white PSP sales still haven't died down as yet. But the DS has been out-selling it for over 20 weeks now when most people thought the PSP would break the streak this past month with WE9, Guilty Gear, and other notable ports that came out along-side the white PSP recently.
ray beat me to it. XD It should be interesting to see how Tokobot, Pokemon Torouze, Where do babies come from?, & Super Princess Peach do in the coming weeks though.
hoooo yeah, Where do babies come from is going to rock. May I ask where do get the lists from?
its on bottom, media create... its all in japanese though, but u can understand the numbers.
NINTEDO RULES
