The Nintendo DSi is in no danger of losing its first place position in Japan, thanks to ongoing strong sales of Dragon Quest IX in the country. But it lost a little steam this past week.
While DSi sales were down, DS Lite sales were up. Maybe Nintendo’s just having a little trouble keeping up with demand, as DQ IX, Tomodachi Collection and others make for a DS-heavy top ten software sales chart. Also getting a boost is the PSP, up considerably from last week.

Expect Wii sales to get a bump in the coming weeks, making the chart a little more blue. In a good way.
Nintendo DSi – 80,362
PSP – 30,523
Wii – 23,995
Nintendo DS Lite – 12,385
PlayStation 3 – 8,997
PlayStation 2 – 3,305
Xbox 360 – 3,080
