Gaming Ace Attorney Investigations 2 Tops the Charts in Japan

[machomuu]

Japan saw a bunch of sequels last week, and they all performed below their predecessors.

Leading the way in Media Create's weekly sales chart was Ace Attorney Investigations 2, with just over 130,000 units. An impressive first week figure, but not as impressive as the original's 172,000 units from back in June 2009.

Macross Triangle Frontier, the latest PSP Macross game, which adds a school-based adventure mode to the high speed dog fighting gameplay, debuted with 56,000 unit sales. In contrast, PS3's Macross Trial Frontier managed 153,000 in its first week in October 2010. Admittedly, the PS3 title's success may have been mostly due to it being the only way to obtain the Macross F Itsuwari no Utahime movie which was bundled as part of a hybrid disk.

White Knight Chronicles PSP debuted with 41,000 units. The franchise has previously only appeared on PS3. White Knight 2 sold 176,000 units in its first week in July of last year.
