Forza Motorsport 3 gives the Xbox 360 a rare top ten placement on Media Create‘s weekly list of the bestselling games in Japan. It’s one of a handful of new debuts that came nowhere near unseating Pokemon as software champ.
Yes, Pokemons Heart Gold and Soul Silver once again top the Media Create software chart, followed by chart toppers Wii Fit Plus and Tomodachi Collection. Another good week for Nintendo. It was also a pretty good week for games like Rune Factory 3, FIFA 10 and Shin Sangoku Musou 5 Special.
Last week’s top ten debut from Nathan Drake and the Uncharted 2: Among Thieves cast is followed by another top ten appearance. Not too shabby!
