Media Create hardware sales figures for Japan, January 21-27.

It lends itself to few surprises, really. The DS Lite has always had a dominant place in the Japanese sales charts, though the PSP's rising popularity in the east sees it slowly creeping up on Nintendo's diminutive handheld, with the Wii sitting comfortably in third place.

The rest of the competition though, it sits uncomfortably in the backseat, especially poor Microsoft's, whose Xbox 360 is still struggling to find it's place in Japan.

DS Lite: 79,370
PSP: 77,933
Wii: 74,544
PS3: 34,363
PS2: 11,364
Xbox 360: 4,296
