Dragon Quest still topping Japanese charts

It's a second week at the top of the Japanese software chart for Dragon Quest VII: Warriors of Eden, and while the sales might not be high as last week's 872,922, it's still over 10,500 ahead of its nearest rival, Animal Crossing: New Leaf.

1. [3DS] Dragon Quest VII: Warriors of Eden - 184,993 (Total sales - 1,012,916)
2. [3DS] Animal Crossing: New Leaf - 78,178 (2,591,602)
3. [3DS] New Super Mario Bros. 2 - 11,784 (1,922,492)
4. [Wii] Taiko Drum Master Wii Super Wonderful Edition - 10,076 (396,225)
5. [3DS] Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate (Best Price!) - 9,138 (227,235)

On the hardware chart all the consoles kept their places, with the Nintendo 3DS still reigning supreme, despite a slight drop in units sold. It'll be interesting to see if next week's chart shows any significant change in sales of the PS3, now that its successor has been announced.

1. 3DS XL - 66,139 (Last week - 89,050)
2. 3DS - 31,832 (38,645)
3. PlayStation 3 - 16,934 (17,004)
4. Wii U - 10,744 (12,185)
5. PSP - 10,501 (11,056)
6. PlayStation Vita - 8,044 (8,762)
7. Wii - 1,655 (1,945)
8. Xbox 360 - 506 (593)
