    Simple 2000: The Japanese Software Chart

    The thrill of watching hundreds of metal balls fall from the top to the bottom of a pachinko machine is now being recreated, digitally, in the homes of tens of thousands of Japanese citizens, but with the added bonus of Neon Genesis Evangelion licensing. What a party.

    Here are the top ten games sold in Japan courtesy of Media Create for the week of June 4th to the 10th.

    01. Hisshou Pachinko * Pachislot Capture Series Vol. 10 CR - Neon Genesis Evangelion (PS2) - 80,586 / NEW
