PSP Takes A Slice Of Japan's Pie

Sales of Sony’s PlayStation [[link]] Portable may be way down—just like sales of the Nintendo DS—but the rival handhelds managed to carve out small victories in Japan this week. The PSP and the three flavors of the Nintendo DS dominate Media Create’s weekly sales chart, moving a good 60,000 units between the two of them. Nintendo won that handheld battle by a smidge. The PlayStation 3 is still [[link]] outselling the Wii in Japan, despite the latter console having the bestselling game [[link]] in the country right now. Here’s how it went down for the week of October 18 to 24. PSP – 32,591 PS3 – 20,128 DSi LL – 15,819 DSi – 14,703 Wii – 11,971 DS Lite – 3,887 Xbox 360 – 2,162 PS2 – 1,222 PSP go – 924
