PS3 sales slide in Japan
FFXIII demo loses shine
Sales of the PlayStation 3 console have slid back down to more realistic levels in Japan, following a week in which sales of the console rocketed as Square Enix released a Final Fantasy XIII demo on the format.
Still, for the week ending April 26th it appears to be a return to form for the most part, the PSP leading with sales of over 41,000 units, the DSi second with over 37,000 sales.
Third is the PS3, this week managing over 23,000 sales, followed by the Wii, still under-performing with over 18,000 for the week.
The Xbox 360 topped 7,000 (just), with the DS Lite marginally off with just over 6,000 sales.
Last is the PS2 with 4,500 - or thereabouts.
