One Piece Pirate Musou outsells rest of Japanese top 20 combined

PS3 title crushes opposition, but 3DS remains best-selling hardware
One Piece Pirate Musou has outsold the rest of the Japanese top 20 combined in its debut week, shifting 655,774 copies on PS3.
The #1 spot marks another good week on home turf for Namco Bandai, which last week dominated with several new releases in the top ten. However, despite tripling PS3 sales, One Piece's release couldn't knock the 3DS from the top of the hardware chart.
In second is Mario & Sonic at London Olympics, selling less than ten per cent of the One Piece figure with 43,155 units. The only other new entry in the top ten is another Namco title: Great Battle Full Blast in fourth.
