The PlayStation 4 saw a relatively strong sales surge last week in Japan, as numbers jumped from 26,598 to 35,782. An increase of around 10,000 units, it's no doubt a welcome sight for Sony as we approach the holidays. It's worth mentioning that the Vita also enjoyed a sales boost, racking up a respectable figure of 21,860.

Meanwhile, on the software side of things, the only new release worthy of note was Bloodborne: The Old Hunters Edition, which managed to claw its way into sixth place, selling through 20,455 copies.
