No, this thread is about Japans weekly sales, and a comment about being won by sony, which is true. But I pointed out that next week MK will be the top seller, therfore breaking this trend of Playstation brand games on the top.

Cause the article makes the PS brand appear to be dominating but doesnt make any reference to Nintendo who just doesnt appear there, but then the 20 games that follow are all on Nintendos consoles, so pretty bad and deceiving article that only fanboys will defend.

Thread title: JAPAN: PS3 PASSES 2 MILLION, PSP SELLING LIKE HOTCAKES

Where does it mention the Wii or Mario Kart Wii?

Original Post:

According to the latest Japanese video game data from Media Create for the week ended April 6, the PlayStation 3 sold another 11,303 units, which finally brings the installed base across the Pacific to more than two million. In terms of weekly sales, Sony's PSP has really taken off, selling close to 121,000 units – more than double Nintendo's DS Lite for the period.

Sales for the PSP were primarily driven by Capcom's Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G, which sold over 488K copies during the week and recently passed 1.5 million units shipped in the region. The Monster Hunter franchise has 6.8 million units so far.
