On the latest hardware sales in Japan, the overall ranking is not surprising at all. Nintendo DS Lite and Wii are still dominant the top 2 position on the ranking. But the sales for both have dropped 6,000+ compared to the last week sales. On the 3rd to 5th place are Sony PSP, PS3 and PS2. Only PS3 have risen selling 3,000+ pieces, the rest are also reduced.

Microsoft Xbox360 from the beginning has not successfully made into Japanese market. Another bad news to Microsoft is Wii has already surpassed the International sales of Xbox360. Xbox360 has been in the market one year earlier than Wii or PS3. But just within a year, Wii have now made a total over 10 million sold worldwide.
