It was a big, big week for new software releases in Japan, with six new titles landing in the top ten. But nothing could dethrone last week‘s software co-champs, Pokemon Soul Silver and Pokemon Heart Gold.

But the PlayStation 3 version of Tales of Vesperia certainly came close, selling more than 200,000 copies in its first week on Japanese store shelves. The PS3 game beat out the RPG competition, including new releases Ys Seven and SaGa 2: Hihou Densetsu – Goddess of Destiny.
There’s no lack of new additions to this week’s Media Create sales charts, with a few you might be familiar with, including the new Korg DS-10, The House of the Dead: Overkill and another Idolm@ster game. Oh, I know you know that last one.
