SD Gundam and Samurai Warriors storm the Japanese charts

While nothing can touch Pokemon, for a few weeks at least, Vita games continue to match their PS4 and PS3 equivalents in the new Media Create chart from Japan. SD Gundam series continues to sell well, although down on the PSP SD editions, while the latest Samurai Warriors has a pretty poor start to life. The latest Code Realize also gets into the top 10.

01./01. [3DS] Pokemon Sun / Moon (Pokemon Co.) - 375.665 / 1.966.294 (-76%)
02./00. [PSV] SD Gundam G Generation Genesis (Bandai) - 88.324 / NEW
03./00. [PS4] SD Gundam G Generation Genesis (Bandai) - 87.568 / NEW 
04./00. [PS4] Samurai Warriors: Sanada Maru (Koei Tecmo) - 26.682 / NEW
...
06./00. [PSV] Samurai Warriors: Sanada Maru (Koei Tecmo) - 13.049 / NEW
07./00. [PS3] Samurai Warriors: Sanada Maru (Koei Tecmo) - 11.040 / NEW
...
09./00. [PSV] Code: Realize - Shukufuku no Mirai (Idea Factory) - 8.250 / NEW
...
16./13. [PSV] Minecraft: PlayStation Vita Edition (Mojang) - 5.628 / 925.955 (+19%)
...
19./04. [PSV] Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star (Marvelous) - 3.929 / 86.224 (-58%)

On the hardware side, those new releases, plus presumably some early sales action in Japan sees Vita sales up over 3,000 on last week shifting 12,250 on the week. Expect a big drop for this week as everyone waits for the new colours, then Vita needs some of those sharp rises to get it over a million for the year.
