Media Create: Nintendo swallows Japanese charts

Media Create has furnished us with Japanese hardware and software sales predictions for the week ending December 14. On the hardware front it’s business as usual: the DSi hundreds of thousands of units ahead, the Wii fending off PlayStation Portable for second place, PlayStation 3 going steady at over 30,000 sales and the Xbox 360 keeping PlayStation 2 and DS Lite company at the bottom of the list.

DSI: 173,700
Wii: 91,600
PSP: 71,500
PS3: 33,700
DSL: 31,100
X360: 11,800
PS2: 6,700

Nintendo also consolidated its hold on the software top ten, with Animal Crossing and Namco’s Taiko no Tatsujin Wii stealing the top two spots. Not a PlayStation or Xbox 360 title in sight, though with White Knight Chronicles incoming on December 25 you can expect that situation to change.
