Image Media Create: Simple 2000: The Japanese Software Chart
ImageThis week's chart features a staple at number one. Nintendo DS training software in the form of DS Observation Training. No surprise there. But what's far less common are both Xbox 360 and PLAYSTATION 3 games in the top then. At spots two and three, no less. Those games are Trusty Bell and Ninja Gaiden Sigma, two big releases that I don't expect to have much in the way of staying power. Still, good showing, new-generation.

Here are the top ten games sold in Japan for the week of June 11th to the 17th, courtesy of Media Create.

01. DS Observation Training (DS) - 63,439 / 220,810

02. Trusty Bell: Chopin's Dream (360) - 49,334 / NEW

03. Ninja Gaiden Sigma (PS3) - 46,307 / NEW

04. Wii Sports (Wii) - 34,223 / 1,721,611

Not much in the way of massive surprises, but two PLAYSTATION 3 games on the chart in a single week? HUGE. Looks like some of the popular DS and Wii staples have just about ended their top of the pops runs, too. Michael McWhertor

Although having looked at it on youtube it looks quite nice, if very Japanese campness.
