Sony’s PSP has claimed the top spot on the Japanese hardware chart for another week. The latest Media Create figures show that the PSP sold 92 411 units for the week ending the 27th of April, up from last week’s 85 421 units and pushing the PSP closer to 1.5 million units sold in 2008.

The PSP sold almost twice as much as the Wii which sold 48 796 units to secure second place, up from last week’s 44 241 units. The Nintendo DS sold 42 435 units, marginally lower than last week’s 44 551 units. The gap between the PSP’s and DS’s year-to-date sales is widening with the DS at 1.2 million units. What is interesting is that the Wii and the DS are currently tied in terms of year-to-date sales, both sitting at 1.2 million units.

The PS3 was next with 9 107 units followed by the PS2 with 7 108, both up from last week’s 7 438 and 6 545 units respectively. The Xbox 360 sold 1 283 units, also up from last week’s 1 076 units.
