Despite a prolonged slump in hardware sales, Japanese console sales improved marginally week-on-week for the week ended June 21st, with the Nintendo DSi remaining at the top of the chart.
The popular handheld moved almost 41,000 units for the week, followed not so closely by its handheld rival the PSP at 27,884 units sold.
For consoles, the Wii clearly led the way, as usual, selling more than the PS3 and Xbox 360 combined.
The overall figures:
* 1. Nintendo DSi: 40,464
* 2. PlayStation Portable: 27,884
* 3. Nintendo Wii: 19,386
* 4. PlayStation 3: 10,359
* 5. Xbox 360: 6734
* 6. Nintendo DS Lite: 5531
