Final Fantasy and DQ titles tend to help sytems out in Japan...(DQ Swords sold Wiis, Final Fantasy III sold DS's)

I wonder how long the PSP can keep this lead

Bravo PSP. Well done! Don't know if you can sustain it that long. However quite good. Still doesn't put it anywhere above the total sales in japan though... cause everyone and their mom has a set of DS it seems... but still. I commend thee.

Next week will be the last time that the PSP outsells the DS in Japan, most likely.

Good for the PSP though. ^^

Good news for Squenix. Not so much for Sony, though. It's nice, yeah, but it won't last. It's just a bump from one game.

(I swear trhis is like the fifth thread on this topic I've seen this week...)

Anyway, congratulations to the PSP, took you long enough. Wish you had more staying power though. Question though, there seems to a slowdown in Wii sales; stockpiling and redivision to America?

Ah, whatever, its probably temporary anyway. (I think.)

I wonder what the sales will look like when Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Mario Galaxy are released. And I think this is old. :(
