The Nintendo Wii and DS have been holding up very strong on the Japanese sales charts, but they will have to bow to Sony for this week. On a more positive note, Just Dance 2 pulls a big milestone - selling two million copies worldwide. The same can't be said about Red Steel 2, which sold only 50,000 in its first month. Make that week. I guess casual is ringing more bells for Ubisoft on the Wii right now.
