The Media Create Japanese chart results are out, and this week delivers modest overall sales with two 3DS titles leading the way.

Making its debut at number one with just 32,369 sales is Taiko Drum Master: Doko Don! Mystery Adventure, with the series continuing to tick along for Bandai Namco in its homeland. After an impressive debut week we see Capcom's Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Spirit of Justice drop from just under 200,000 units on its debut to 25,288 this time around, but that's still enough for second place. Sales are in four figures outside of the top four, reflecting a quiet spell at retail in Japan - results are below with lifetime sales in brackets.
