Devil Survivor sits in the number one spot on this week's Japanese software sales charts, but looks can be deceiving. When you add up the PS3 and PS4 versions of Far Cry 4, you see what the actual best-selling game was. Here are the sales for Jan. 26 – Feb. 1 in Japan:
1. (3DS) Devil Survivor 2: Break Record – 53,264
2. (PS4) Far Cry 4 – 36,239
3. (PS3) Tales of Zestiria – 29,487
4. (3DS) Yokai Watch 2: Shin Uchi – 27,566
5. (3DS) Yowamushi Pedal: Ashita he no High Cadence – 20,510
6. (PS3) Far Cry 4 – 18,366
7. (3DS) Pokemon Omega Ruby / Alpha Sapphire – 14,108

19. (WIU) Mario Kart 8 – 5,103
20. (3DS) Animal Crossing: New Leaf – 4,910
Looks like the game gave PS4 a nice little boost, too. Here's the hardware chart, which shows 3DS continuing to run around uncontested and the Xbox One continuing its dive to the floor:
3DS – 36,408
PS4 – 17,392
PSV – 12,392
PS3 – 7,211
WIU – 6,807
XBO – 222
Media Create specifies that 521 of the Vita units are Vita TV (known as "PlayStation TV" in the West), and 29,000 of the 3DS sales are the New 3DS and New 3DS XL. That means the old-fashioned 3DS is still outselling the Wii-U. Japan, man. Be a handheld or GTFO.
