Media Create 09/24/07 - 09/30/07 Japanese Sales Numbers : Halo 3 Tops Weakened Chart [Update 2]

Akira_EX | October 04, 2007 | Press Release | DS Playstation Portable Misc 
Japan just got a bit crazier. With the PSP outselling the DS last week (if only because of Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII's release), Halo 3 tops last week's charts with 59,000 units sold, with one of the two Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2 games taking second with 55,000 units, and Crisis Core taking third with 54,000 units.

Amist a week with no major release outside of Bleach: Blade Battlers 2nd, a Xbox 360 game sells the most units in Japan. It must be noted that if you combine the two Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2 games, it totals 101,000 units, and is the true number one.

Regardless, good job and kudos to Microsoft and Bungie, and let's see how it holds up this week, when Mistwalker's Archaic Sealed Heat (DS), Powerful Pro Major League 2 (Wii, PS2) and Gundam Battle Chronicle (PSP) all come out.
