The Wii, PSP and Nintendo DS have dominated the charts for another week in Japan. Nintendo’s Wii Party returned to the #1 spot according to the Media Create rankings ending July 25, displacing the recently released Fire Emblem remake (via Gamasutra).
Wii Party was announced in May, and launched in Japan earlier this month. The gameplay is similar to that of a boardgame, with Miis serving as game pieces. It sold 230,000 units when it launched, and will be arriving in North America this fall.
The other games to make the cut are all mainstays on the Japanese Top 10, with the only newcomers being the dungeon crawler Fate/Extra and the curiously named Katekyoo Hitman Reborn! DS Flame Rumble XX – Kessen! Shin 6 Chouka. Super Mario Galaxy 2 is one notable game that has return to the Top 10 after dropping to #11 last week.
