    Simple 2000: The Japanese Hardware Chart

    Selling 330,000 copies of Mario Party DS a week in Japan is impressive, to say the least, but when the nation is snapping up nearly as many Nintendo DS handhelds in the same time frame, it goes a long to explaining the resurgence. Final Fantasy IV's portable availability probably didn't hurt. Nintendo once again dominates (Ed's note: look up synonym for dominate) the Media Create sales charts this week, selling hardware at nearly twice the rate of its competitors combined. Someone over there likes their mini-games!

    • Nintendo DS Lite - 279,551
    • Wii - 232,907
    • PSP - 171,804
    • PlayStation 3 - 58,167
    • PlayStation 2 - 20,391
    • Xbox 360 - 7,908
