Media Create Japan Hardware Sales: May 14th-20th

Hardware has followed software's trend. Last week both hardware and software sales dipped, and this week the fall continues a bit more. Primarily handheld sales were affected the most, as other consoles didn't budge very much. Nintendo DS sales dropped down to 111k units sold, and the PSP dropped down below the 30k mark with 27.5k sold. Home consoles were virtually unaffected, as they all managed to sell nearly the very same amount of units this week compared to last week. The Wii is still going strong with 52k, meanwhile the PS3 sold a mere 8,659. June 7th will see the release of Folksoul, and June 14th will see Ninja Gaiden Sigma - both titles should hopefully bump sales of the PS3 a bit.
