The latest sales data from Japan is in, and this week sees the 3DS – which usually dominates sales in Japan – face some serious competition.

In software, the 3DS holds its own, with ten out of the top twenty games coming in for the system, although the top seller was actually on a much older competitor’s system. The Wii U saw two games make the top twenty, with Mario Kart 8 making a welcome return to number 15, and Super Smash Bros. coming in at number 17.

In hardware, the 3DS LL comes in at second place, although if you combine the sales of each of the four 3DS models, it actually just takes the lead with 33,950 sales, a mere 197 more than Sony’s singular top seller.

It’s a close call this week, so check out the full charts below and let us know your thoughts on the way things were in Japan last week.
