Tough guy simulator Kenka Bancho 4: Ichinen Sensou is Japan's bestselling video game, the latest entry in the series that has made its way stateside under the name Kenka Bancho: Badass Rumble. It dethrones Capcom's Biohazard 5 re-release this week.
While Biohazard 5 Alternative Edition (aka Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition) couldn't hold onto first place again this week, it's only bumped down to third, sitting behind Kenka Banco 4 for PSP and Super Robot Wars OG: Saga Endless Frontier Exceed for the Nintendo DS. That's better than Heavy Rain and Dante's Inferno, two PlayStation 3 games that quickly slipped off the chart.
There are plenty of new releases in this week's Media Create software chart, including the Japanese release of Borderlands, BlazBlue Portable and the budget priced re-release of Demon's Souls. See all—make that thirty—of Japan's top sellers for the week of February 22 to 28 in the list below.
