Kirby is doing great, but is it sucking in customers to buy a DSi? Yes, that was a bad joke, but it had to be said. Nintendo doesn't even need a game to sell the DSi anyway.
Wii Music's initial shipment to Japan was about 300,000 copies. Nintendo has barely sold half of those. It's not quite the hit Nintendo was expecting, and it definitely isn't doing as good as Wii Fit which has sold over 2 million copies in Japan. Wagamama Fashion Girls>Wii Music. Nintendo needs to catch on and get a Wii fashion game.

PS3 sales are actually staying steady, dropping only by 1,000 units from last week. However, LittleBigPlanet and Gran Turismo 5 Prologue: Spec 3 have dropped off the top 10. Both of those are bundled with PS3s in Japan. LBP is at #22 this week and GT5 Prologue: Spec 3 is at #14.
360 sales are down to about 8,000 from 12,000 last week. They should get a boost next week from hardware bundles for The Last Remant, a JRPG from Square Enix and a timed exclusive on the Xbox 360.
November is shaping up to be the first month since July that the PS3 will outsell the Xbox 360 in Japan. Unless The Last Remnant bundles can sell enough to get the 360 over the PS3s fairly large lead this month.
