Would you believe it - we've actually got something worth writing about when it comes to the latest Japanese sales charts. Toukiden 2 entered the software charts in fourth and fifth place on Vita and PlayStation 4 respectively, but neither version sold especially well, racking up around 100,000 units between them. It's also worth pointing out that the PlayStation 3 edition of the demon slaying sequel ended up in eleventh place with just 6,222 copies sold.

And, even with a new Idolmaster game leaping into third, the PS4 couldn't muster enough sales to retake the top spot of the hardware charts. At this point, we're just waiting to see what sort of impact the likes of upcoming blockbusters Persona 5 and Final Fantasy XV have on the weekly listings.
