Baseball and Drums Sell Well in Japan (Charts)

The Japanese game charts look colourful this week (guess it must be the silly season there too) with five new entries kicking out the old guard from the top five. Cutesey baseball game Jikkyou and Drum Master from Namco do the biz for the PSP in the top five [Andriasang] while Unchained Rexx hits the Top 10. There are six PSP games in the top 20 with the 3DS sales of StarFox looking surprisingly limp.


[PS3] 1. Jikkyou Powerful Pro Baseball 2011 (Konami): 117,759 NEW!
[PSP] 2. Taiko Drum Master Portable DX (Deluxe) (Namco Bandai): 80,215 NEW!
[WII] 3. Inazuma Eleven Strikers (Level 5): 74,227 NEW!
[PSP] 4. Jikkyou Powerful Pro Baseball 2011 (Konami): 73,247 NEW!
[NDS] 5. Puyo Puyo!! (Sega): 34,903 NEW!

3DS is back on top of the PSP in the hardware charts, helped by StarFox and a few other new releases, looks like this leap frogging could go on for some time.
