PSP is king yet again in Japan

Yes folks, PSP is again number one in Japan. After being knocked out of the top slot last week to second place by big brother PS3, the PSP climbs back to the top with 59,351 units sold. Despite a drop of 5,000 units from last week’s 64K total, the PSP is still amazingly way ahead of its competition. Now, how did last week’s top draw, PS3, do this week? It shot down to fourth place. It is, however, quite a success in that it’s pulling 20K; usually the PS3 generates sales similar to PS2’s current numbers.
