PlayStation 3 games at the top of the Japanese charts for two weeks in a row? That’s something unusual as Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots take over from Dragon Ball Z Burst Limit to lead the charts this week with an incredible sales of more than 450,000 copies from its amazing debut. Well deserved considering how good the game is (I’m still at Act 2 unfortunately).

PSP has two games on the charts, something must be really awesome in Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu Portable 3 that it actually maintain its Top 5 position. Although dropping out of the Top 10 after two weeks, Marvelous’ RPG Valhalla Knights 2 is still has respectable sales at 15 in Media Create.

Next week, expect Banpresto’s Super Robot Wars A Portable to do extemely well for PSP. In their early report to Mainichi, retailer Tsutaya says the GBA port is the hottest new release this week but they expect MGS4’s “dash” to continue for a second week. Nintendo Wii’s Super Mario Stadium: Family Baseball is another big title to look out for.
