The full Media Create sales charts have gone live, which includes hardware sales and the top 50 games sold in Japan for the week of December 11th - 17th. First let's take a look at the important hardware sales.
- Nintendo DS - 319,708
- Wii - 108,237
- PlayStation 3 - 70,942
- PSP - 48,962
- PlayStation 2 - 37,730
- Xbox 360 - 17,168
Almost 320,000 Nintendo DS units sold in one week? Amazing. It also appears that Blue Dragon sales are helping the Xbox 360 find its way into more Japanese households (it generally sells somewhere between one- and three-thousand units weekly).
The expanded chart also shows where The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and Blue Dragon landed after falling out of the top 30. The former hangs on at spot #33 while Blue Dragon slides down to spot #46.
Despite healthy sales of the PlayStation 3, only two games appear within the top 50, with the newly released Motorstorm checking in at #35 and Ridge Racer 7 barely squeaking in at #49.
