Edgeworth investigates the top of Japan's sales chart
The weekly Media Create rankings make a strong case for the continued existence of the
Ace Attorney Investigations series. In its first week of release in Japan, the
sequel topped the chart with 132,266 copies sold. It's not quite the start the first
Investigations got — it sold 172,000 copies in its first week back in 2009 — but it's still first place.
Overall, it was a strong week for new games, and for handheld games. The top four games are all DS or PSP titles, and all came out on the same day, February 3: Macross Triangle Frontier (PSP), White Knight Chronicles: Dogma Wars (PSP) and Dragon Ball Kai: Ultimate Butouden (DS).
