Battle & Get! Pokemon Typing DS is Japan’s top game

Recommended Videos

In this week’s Media Create numbers Pokemon tops the charts, as usual. But it’s not a standard Pokemon game outselling the rest this week; Pikachu and pals are typing tutors for Japan this time around in Battle and Get! Pokemon Typing DS. This game sold over 59,000 units, which is a lot for game that has you typing in Pokemon names to capture them. That seems like the hard way to do things.  I suppose the included Bluetooth keyboard (shown above) is pretty neat, though.

This typing title pushes past last week’s top game, Dragon Quest Monsters Joker 2 Professional, which is now in third, right after Pro Baseball Spirits 2011.

As for hardware, the PSP is on top after a slip behind the 3DS last week. It sold almost 50,000 units last week in Japan. I thought everyone already had a PSP there!
