Japanese hardware sales, March 5 – 11

The weekly game hardware sales in Japan dropped all across all consoles, while seeing a few minute climbs for a few Nintendo handhelds. Local market analyzers Media Create brings you the results for the week ending March 11.

Still up the charts yet down by a huge drop is the sales of the Sony PSP landing just a dozen thousand more than the Nintendo Wii, still much thanks to Capcom‘s Monster Hunter Portable 2nd. The Nintendo DS (almost all Lite) still leads by twice that amount. 

Since the week ending March 4, the biggest drop was the PlayStation 3, garnering a 27.01% (11,885 units since last week) dive, although the Wii fell the most by sales totals up to almost 13,500 units. Least to drop was the Xbox 360, going down a measly 46 units representing just a 1.36% drop.

• PSP: 56,175
• Wii : 44,495
• PS3: 32,115
• Xbox360: 3,333
