Surprising no one,
Dissidia
was numero uno on last week's Media Create Japanese sales charts,
selling an astonishing 489,126 copies. Did it have the best debut week
ever for a PSP title in Japan? Of course not, not even close -- that
honor belongs to
Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G, which managed to push 820,000 copies out the door in its first week, according to
PSPHyper. However, it did beat out another
Final Fantasy spinoff,
Crisis Core, by 3,000 units.
On
the hardware side, it was also a healthy week for the PSP: our beloved
portable saw 145,957 units in sales, though it was still bested by the
DS, which sold 204,144 units. Now the real question is, does Square
Enix's fan-service brawler have the momentum it takes to be top dog
again next week? Sales numbers and ranking for the top 10 Japanese
games of the week are after the jump
