Phoenix Wright Sequel Tops Japanese Charts
Well, Nintendo must be feeling pretty chipper today, not only did it clear up at the MCV awards in London last night, it seems that it also has eight of the top ten best-selling video games in Japan right now, according to the latest chart.

Capcom's fourth Phoenix Wright game, Phoenix Wright 4 (Gyakuten Saiban 4) (DS), has shifted over a quarter of a million copies in its first week on Japanese shelves.

A second new DS title, Mario Vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Mini's, is straight in at number two closely followed by Wii Sports and Wii Play at numbers three and five. Yes. Still!

The only two games that are not Nintendo format exclusives in this weeks chart are PS2 titles - Koei's Musuo Orochi and Konami's Pro Baseball Spirits 4.

1. Phoenix Wright 4
2. Mario Vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis
