The sales of consoles and games in Japan, presented in the two tables below, allow us, as usual, to gauge the temperature of the Japanese market. More than ever, the N intendo DS is in great shape, exploding all other machines in the top hardware, but also occupying the top 7 spots of best-selling games… The top 7 spots! Nintendo is also rubbing its hands with the Wii selling like hot cakes, Wii Sports is still in the top 10 and the brand new Pokemon Battle Revolution makes an honorable entry.
Sales figures for the week of December 11-17, 2006 + total sales.
