Hardware sales remain flat in Japan

The Nintendo DS was the best-selling system in Japan for the week ended May 10, in another quiet week for hardware.

Combined sales of the DSi and DS reached 63,203 units, ahead of Sony's PSP which sold 43,009 units.

The Wii was the leading home console, up marginally on last week to 24,397 units, while Sony's PlayStation 3 notched up another 18,483 units.

The PlayStation 2 once again outsold the Xbox 360, although both only scraped just over 5000 units, with 5137 and 5068 sold, respectively.
