Zombie-blasting Resident Evil spinoff, Operation Raccoon City, takes the top spot in this week's Japanese Software Chart (April 23 - April 29). The PS3 version claims #1, while the Xbox 360 edition settles for #8. Between them? A bizarre role-playing game called Conception: Please Give Birth to My Children. Oh, Japan.The PSP game, newly-released last week, tasks players with seducing innocent schoolgirls and using their offspring to explore dungeons and battle "impurities." Let's see the
Daily Mail have a go at that one.
Conception is just one of a number of JRPG debuts to the Top 10 this week, with
Steins;Gate landing at #6.
Gust's new adventure game,
Surge Concerto Ciel nosurge, hits #4 this week, and gives the PlayStation Vita a bit of a kick up the backside in terms of sales and visibility. Other new entries include
Mario Party 9, the latest
Idolmaster and
Dynasty Warriors VS.
