The PlayStation Move launched last week in Japan, and the new motion control peripheral did little to enthuse gamers to purchase PS3s. For the week, ending on October 24th, the PS3 sold 20,128 units, a solid two thousand units less than in the week before the Move launched.
In other Japanese sales news, the 25th anniversary Super Mario Collection has managed to sell more than three hundred thousand copies, knocking the reigning champion of the chart, Pokémon Black/White, to number two. Nintendo is unmatched in its mastery of the Japanese sales charts. See the charts below for full sales information.
