Japan Weekly Software Ranking (Mar 30 – Apr 5)

Last week was a relatively quiet week for new releases so plenty of consistent sellers actually moving up. Koei’s latest game in their long running horse racing series Winning Post World did well to make it to the Top 10 with 13,000 copies sold. With Musou Orochi Z still doing well in its third week, the publisher has two PS3 titles in the Top 10. Probably the reason why Ni-oh, a PS3 action game announced long ago, will be back in the news soon.

Note: Charts will be updated with more figures when they become available.
