The PlayStation Portable has once again acquitted itself magnificently at Japanese retail, snatching five top ten software sales places for the week ending November 30. Well-established brands like Gundam, Yu-Gi-Oh and KOEI’s love-it-or-hate-it Musou beat-em-ups led the charge.
The PlayStation 3 didn’t make quite as much of a dent, though Konami’s Winning 11 2009 made a powerful debut at second place – narrowly behind Level 5’s charming brain-boggler Professor Layton and the Last Time Travel.
