This week’s numbers make much more sense all around than Media Crate’s suspicious numbers last week. The DS managed to jump back into second place for sales in Japan during the week ending July 6th, but it came at the expense of the Wii dropping to #3.
Despite Initial D Extreme Stage‘s strong launch for the PS3, that platform actually saw the largest drop in sales for the week. The hardware sales were as follows.
- PSP: 56,439 (-2,912)
- DSL: 47,455 (+10,856)
- Wii: 44,525 (+3,488)
- PS3: 14,359 (-5,977)
- PS2: 11,768 (+5,422)
- X360: 4,776 (+2,221)
Full software sales rankings can be found after the break.
