Hey, whaddya know, a PSP game in the top 10 Japanese software charts not named Gundam, and even though it came in at the last spot, we'll still take it.1. Kirby Squeak Squad - (DS) - 166,131 /NEW
2. General Knowledge Training DS - (DS) - 159,166 /348,866
3. Pokemon Diamond - (DS) - 105,943 /1,604,152
4. Winning Eleven: Pro Evolution Soccer 2007 - (DS) - 89,275 /NEW
5. Pokemon Pearl - (DS) - 81,604 /1,358,416
6. New Super Mario Bros. - (DS) - 31,307 /3,366,560
7. Brain Training 2 - (DS) - 27,448 /3,387,842
8. Zaidan Houjin Nippon Kanji Nouryoku Kentei Kyoukai Kounin: KanKen DS - (DS) - 22,824/ 210,556
9. Animal Crossing: Wild World - (DS) - 20,691/ 3,389,974
10. Ace Combat X: Skies of Deception - (PSP) - 17,961/ 78,545
Although PSM doesn't seem to like Ace Combat X, the Japanese sure do. I guess that mature audience Sony is going after can payoff in Japan.

What? They make non Gundam and non asian girl games for the PSP in Japan??? Crazy. They should combine the two subgenres and make a Gundam game that features Japanse models.
On a somewhat unrelated note, doesn't the new Kirby game look hot?

Port the Ace Combat X game on DS and it will sell better. Wanna know why? Better stylus control (like Starfox Command) and no load times.

@4:
It will sell better because of the massive acceptance of the DS in Japan. :P
The controls in Ace Combat X are pretty good and load times are pretty short actually. The game plays and looks pretty fine.

Claudius,
"...because of the massive acceptance of the DS in Japan." which is because of things like better stylus control and no load times. :P

@KAZ:
Don't give the credit just to it. I sincerely think that the DS would not be the right system to handle it (the game), and by massive acceptance I mean just that: since more people own a DS, there are more possibilities a popular game like Ace Combat would sell better than a PSP counterpart.
