While hardware sales in Japan skewed more towards handheld games this last week, software sales are a different story altogether. According to the latest Media Create numbers, games for all major platforms — yes, including the Xbox 360 — made appearances in Japan’s list of best-selling games for the week of April 12 through 18.

New Super Mario Bros. for the Nintendo Wii took the number one slot with 32,108 copies sold. Another Nintendo title, Tomodachi Collection for the DS, came in second place at 20,883 units, while Pro Baseball Spirits 2010 followed closely behind at 20,880 sold on the PSP and 19,104 on the PlayStation 3. The PS3 version of Hokuto Musou, the Fist of the North Star-themed spinoff of Dynasty Warriors, squeezed into the top five with 18,866 games sold.

The bottom half of the top ten features just as many familiar faces as it does total surprises. Pokemon Ranger: Tracks of Light moved 15,961 copies, putting it at number six for the week. The PS3 and Xbox 360 remakes of No More Heroes nabbed the next two slots, selling 15,763 and 15,153 units, respectively. Behind that are Nintendo Wii Fit Plus with 14,685 sold, followed by Yakuza 4 at 11,094.
