Japan loves Doraemon, and it shows. Not only did the manga-based robot cat have a successful DS baseball game, but now a game based on the manga itself debuted in the top ten. Soma Bringer was still the top dog for the handheld, though, selling a total of 68,000 copies in two weeks. Are numbers like these high enough to motivate Monolith Soft to bring the game to English speaking markets? Well, we certainly hope so, but that remains to be seen.
As for hardware, the DS stayed in third place again last week, but wasn't too far behind the PSP:
- Wii: 57,068
- PSP: 53,924
- Nintendo DS: 48,658
- PlayStation 3: 21,008
- PlayStation 2: 10,429
- Xbox 360: 2,891
