PSP bossing the Japanese charts again, Hatsune Miku No. 1

While the 3DS might be selling the most hardware, the PSP is still racking up big numbers in the software charts, with three games in the top five:


01. [PSP] Hatsune Miku Project Diva Extend (Sega, 11/10): 184,673
02. [PS3] Sengoku Basara 3 Utage (Capcom, 11/10): 124,197
03. [PSP] Ore no Shi wo Koete Yuke (Sony, 11/10): 94,085
04. [3DS] Super Mario Land 3D (Nintendo, 11/03): 93,441 (436,933)
05. [PSP] Final Fantasy Type-0 (Square Enix, 10/27): 57,091 (651,630)

With Sony offering new PSP designs, it looks like the little console won't be going anywhere soon.
