The week of January 17th – 23rd saw the release of Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep Final Mix, finally ending the Birth by Sleep chapter of the series. (Then again…) Birth by Sleep Final Mix moved 77,000 copies, taking the place of Another Century’s Episode Portable at #1, above Monster Hunter Portable 3rd at #2.
Another Century’s Episode, in the mean time, saw itself bumped down all the way to #11 in the span of a single week. Two new Namco Bandai releases in the form of Kaiju Busters Powered and Venus & Braves, along with consistent top-ten regulars like Donkey Kong Country Returns and PokĆ©mon Black/White dominated the first half of the week’s sales chart.
Also in the top-ten was Inazuma Eleven 3: Challenge the World ā The Ogre, which shot up all the way from #28 to #7. A new shipment, perhaps? Also making its return from beyond the top-20 was Taiko no Tatsujin Wii: Everyoneās Party Sandaime.
