Gran Turismo 5 nudges its way onto Japanese charts

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue has cracked the Japanese charts at number 3, selling 116,000 copies per Media Create data. However, it’s the only PS3 title in the list, which is mostly packed with Wii and DS titles. Funny enough, more PS2 games made the cut than PS3. Here’s the full list:

1. Mario Party DS (DS)

2. Wii Fit (Wii)

3. Gran Turismo 5 Prologue (PS3)

4. Prof. Layton and Pandora’s Box (DS)

5. Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)

6. Dragon Quest IV (DS)

7. Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games (Wii)

8. Wi Sports (Wii)

9. Wii Play (Wii)

10. Chocobo’s Mysterious Dungeon: The Labyrinth of Forgotten Time (Wii)

11. World Soccer Winning Eleven 2008 (PS2)

12. Mario Party 8 (Wii)

13. Powerful Pro-kun Pocket 10 (DS)

14. Kirarin Revolution (DS)

15. Pokemon Mysterious Dungeon: Time Expedition Party (DS)

16. Mario Kart DS (DS)

17. Taiko Drum Master (DS)

18. Pokemon Mysterious Dungeon: Shadow Expedition Party (DS)

18. Hot Shots Golf Portable 2 (PSP)

20. SD Gundam G Generation Spirits (PS2)

Taiko Drum Master at #17 makes me feel better about the fact that I can’t go to bed without playing it. I envy Japanese top twenties; somehow they always look more appealing than US release lists to me. I see WiiFit is number two. I guess the Japanese can make time in their 22 hour workdays for Wii Yoga.
