As you'd expect, PlayStation 4 sales are plummeting in Japan ahead of the Slim's imminent arrival. Sony's system sold through just 1828 units last week as the standard PS4 model is slowly phased out to make room for its sleeker sibling.

Meanwhile, on the software side of things, there's no really too much to see. The best selling PlayStation release last week was The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year Edition, which entered in second and sold through 11,948 copies. Not too shabby for a game that's over a year old.
