Call it a slow news day. Blame the fact that it’s the first time in recent memory that Sony products have commanded 50% of the chart (given, I have the recollection capacity of a goldfish with Attention Deficit Disorder), but here’s a look at that the Japanese gaming public bought last week in the Land of the Rising Sun.
If you’re wondering what the hell Nobunaga no Yabou Tendou is, it’s a turn-based strategy game and the latest in a popular series from Koei. The title translates as Nobunaga’s Ambition: Heaven. Tell me about it, Nobunaga. We also see the rehash of Resident Evil 5 sneak into the chart.
A strong week for the PSP, too, with the latest in the seemingly never-ending .hack series charting very well. //Link is apparently the last in the series, though we have a sneaky suspicion that this just a ploy to make the universe’s fans purchase the title out of blind fanboyish support. Looks like it’s working.
Kenka Bancho is a popular school-based smack’em-up. No, you read that right.
Finally, God Eater, Namco’s retort to Capcom’s runaway Monster Hunter series, is still selling extremely well. Those crazy Japanese do love their monster-themed smackathons.

I’d like to go to Japan just so I don’t have to hear “PS3′S SHIT, YO.” whenever I mention it.

Japan is awesome. It’s the only place where, if you wanted to, you can walk down the street dressed as Cloud Strife* and people, instead of trying to stab you, simply give you a respectful nod of appreciation.
*True story. He wasn’t carrying the big-ass sword though.

It can be one of the best and one of the worst places ever, at the same time and I’m pretty sure it’s the only country that can do that.

What’s more weird are the girls dressed as manga characters handing out free tissues. Seriously. You can get your photo taken with them and everything.
