Couple weeks at least. Then there's that Hatsune Miku white Vita, then the Crystal White the month after.

Lots of boosts coming for Vita.



I was expecting a bigger boost from Mario Tennis, but no big deal. DQ next week will make up for it.



Solid FW for Mario Tennis!! This week should be huge for it. 3DS keeps on chugging!



Vita selling 6k is crazy... add another 6k in USA and you have 12k xD

Newest Japanese Sales: Dragon’s Dogma Sells Huge

And Nintendo’s domination continues unabated.

As always, Japanese firm Media Create has released its weekly sales data. This week's trove of information covers the week from May 21st through May 27th, and has been translated by Andriasang.

Nintendo 3DS continues to dominate the Japanese gaming market. 3DS sales surged over 50,000 units for the week, with the next closest console or handheld, the PlayStation 3, coming in at just under 15,000 units sold. Meanwhile, PSP continues to outsell the struggling PlayStation Vita, and Xbox 360 saw an unusual uptick in sales because of the new Cave shooter entitled Mushihime-sama, as well as a new Monster Hunter and an alternate SKU of Dragon’s Dogma.

  • 1.) Nintendo 3DS - 55,212
  • 2.) PlayStation 3 - 14,771
  • 3.) PlayStation Portable - 10,617
  • 4.) PlayStation Vita - 6,675
  • 5.) Nintendo Wii - 6,149
  • 6.) Microsoft Xbox 360 - 3,069

Nintendo once again dominates the software sales charts in terms of how many games it has on the list, but Dragon’s Dogma on PlayStation 3 was the best-selling game of the week, with Mario Tennis Open on 3DS coming in a distant second. Seven of the top ten selling games of the week are brand-new, and 13 of the top 20 are new, which is a nice change of pace from recent weeks.

Overall, the Nintendo 3DS accounted for six games on the top 20 list. PlayStation Portable took five more slots, with PlayStation 3 taking four of its own. Xbox 360 had an unusually strong week in Japan with three titles on the top 20, with PlayStation Vita and Nintendo Wii taking one each.
