    Simple 2000: The Japanese Hardware Chart

    Another week, another hardware sales chart. No movers and shakers here, but what we are starting to learn is the weekly ability of Nintendo to meet demand for its two hot hardware entries, the Nintendo DS Lite and Wii. It appears that Nintendo's fulfillment abilities have been around 120K a week for the DS Lite and 65K a week for the Wii, as the past two weeks closely match today's figures.

    There's one big jump this week. Can you spot it?

    • Nintendo DS Lite - 118,684
    • Wii - 65,521
    • PSP - 33,359
    • PlayStation 2 - 11,974
    • PLAYSTATION 3 - 9,481
    • Xbox 360 - 7,583
    • Game Boy Advance SP - 472
    • Game Boy micro - 371

    That's not a typo. The Xbox 360 tripled its typical weekly sales, moving units within spitting distance of the PLAYSTATION 3. This week's #2 software seller, Trusty Bell: Chopin's Dream was responsible for that. Too bad Ninja Gaiden Sigma didn't seem to light a fire under PS3 buyers.
