Media Create Japan Software Sales: June 25th-July 1st

The week of June 25th-July 1st was a pretty solid week in
sales for Japan. No game sold less than 30k on the chart this
week, and kept the average sales of the chart at a fantastic
~79k. The ever popular Super Robot Wars franchise continues to
attract hordes, as the newest PS2 title swept the chart with over
345k copies sold. The newest Zelda adventure for the Nintendo DS
is still selling superbly well in its follow-up week, with over
136k carts sold. The debut of Ratchet and Clank: Going Mobile for
the PSP in Japan landed with 39k sold for Sony. Note: we're not
sure if Going Mobile is a PSP port of the actual mobile game
released two years ago, or if its R&C: Size Matters.
