As expected during a time where most of the Japanese workforce enjoy more free time, sales in the reported period have increased. Although Wii sales have risen disproportionately compared to the previous weeks, it is still too early to tell if this is indicative of increased production capability on Nintendo's part. Moreover, the triumvirate of DS Lite, Wii and PlayStation Portable have solified the grip on the Top 3 sales spots, with the ever dominant DS Lite leading the pack.
