So much for Nintendo losing its dominance in Japan, seen as almost inevitable back in November. Nintendo took
all ten positions in the latest Media Create charts, which looks something like this:
1 3 Mario Party ds nintendo DS 196,000
2 2 Wii Fit Nintendo Wii 127,000
3 6 Wii Sports Nintendo Wii 118,000
4 4 Final Fantasy IV Square Enix DS 91,000
5 10 Super Mario Galaxy Nintendo Wii 82,000
6 11 Hajimete no Wii Nintendo Wii 78,000
7 9 Dragon Quest IV: Michibikareshi Monotachi Square Enix DS 78,000
8 8 Layton Kyouju to Akuma no Hako Level-5 DS 76,000
9 12 Mario & Sonic at Bejing Olympics Nintendo Wii 75,000
10 13 Mario Party 8 Nintendo Wii 66,000
Man, people love them some Mario Party. My sister adores the series, I haven't played even one of them! Also
remember that Wii Sports isn't a pack-in game in Japan: Wii Play is what they get with the machine.
It's also nice to see Final Fantasy back on the Japanese charts, as well as Mario and Sonic.

Evidentally Mario Party DS isn't too hard to find over there... that's cool! I know some people have had trouble over here in the States trying to track down a copy lately. Anyway, that's some pretty great news to hear from Japan!
