Japanese hardware sales, Oct. 1 - Oct. 7: Best served cold edition


Well, it was interesting while it lasted.

Unwilling to let the PSP reign supreme a fourth week, the DS Lite just barely clambers its way back onto the Japanese sales chart throne, still warm from the months of prior supremacy. If role-playing games have taught us anything, defeating the final boss is but a prelude to his second and much more powerful form. And if there's any knowledge to be gained from movies, it's that a foiled villain is rarely foiled so much as he is inconvenienced.

"From hell's heart, I stab at PSP!"
