So... who pushed me down again?! - Image 1 What better way to start the week than checking out Famitsu's Weekly Most Wanted list? That's right. Nothing beats the excitement, the tension, the anticipation this top rank chart can offer.

Last week, Eternal Sonata (Trusty Bell in Japan) dropped from the list after its much successful release. On other hand, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass already blasted off the shelves with overwhelming sales, yet still hangs on to the 10th spot (two steps down from last week).

Itagaki Street DS, coming in with Halo 3 last week, is nowhere in site. The FPS giant that carries the Xbox name, however, inches forward to 19th place (from being dead last). New entries this week are Last Remnant at 17 and Final Fantasy IV at 18. Looks like Japanese gamers' hearts are torn apart, leaving this couple from Square Enix dwindling.

There have been a couple of switcheroos this week: Monster Hunter 3 took Metal Gear Solid 4's 4th spot, dropping the latter to 5th. Dragon Quest Swords: The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors switched with Super Robot Taisen: Original Generations, placing them at 6th and 7th places respectively.

Let's quit the chatter - here's the list. Enjoy!

  1. Dragon Quest IX (DS, Square Enix)  
  2. Final Fantasy XIII (PS3, Square Enix) 
  3. Biohazard 5 (PS3, Capcom) 
  4. Monster Hunter 3 (PS3, Capcom)
  5. Metal Gear Solid 4 (PS3, Konami)
  6. Dragon Quest Swords: The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors (Wii, Square Enix)
  7. Super Robot Taisen: Original Generations (PS2, Banpresto)
  8. Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii, Nintendo)
  9. Everybody's Golf 5 (PS3, Sony)
  10. Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (DS, Nintendo)
  11. Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII (PSP, Square Enix)
  12. Lost Odyssey (Xbox 360, Microsoft)
  13. Devil May Cry 4 (PS3, Capcom) 
  14. Final Fantasy Versus XIII (PS3, Square Enix)
  15. Animal Crossing (Wii Nintendo) 
  16. Harvest Moon: It's a Wonderful World (DS, Square Enix)
  17. Last Remnant (Xbox 360, Square Enix)
  18. Final Fantasy IV (DS, Square Enix)
  19. Halo 3 (Xbox 360, Microsoft)
  20. Gran Turismo 5 (PS3, Sony)

Having Halo on a Japan top 20 is astounding. This is good for Halo, not bad fool. But from that comment you obviously have no sense so I don't know why I'm even bothering wasting my time with you.

WTF. n00b! This is Japan. And it was at 20 last week. How anyone dis a game that sells over 4 million pre-orders is beyond me, and I don't even own a 360.

I agree with qw. I have no idea how Halo 3 continues to make it on the Japanese most wanted chart. And how the hell did it get above Gran Turismo 5?

   Re: Quixand - 2007-07-01
 » Devise
probably because of Gran Turismo's release date... it's just so far off.

I'm getting GT5 but if i was to answer a survey right now about my most anticipated games I wouldn't be putting GT on it.

I think u have listed the wrong platform for The Last Remnant. Im pretty sure that the Japanese will only care about the PS3 version, just like with Resi Evil 5 and DMC4.

Looking at the chart, the PS3 has more games in it than the DS and Wii combined, which clearly tells us that its just a matter of time before PS3 begins to dominate Japan.

Monster Hunter 3 hasn't even been announced yet and its on the number 3 spot. lol. We all know it is coming, most likely for the PS3 and Xbox 360. I dont think Capcom is ready to choose sides, just look at Devil May Cry 4. Maybe it is time for Microsoft to pay Capcom off to get Monster Hunter 3 exclusive?

 » no doubt
its coming, capcom is making money on the 360 if devil may cry came monster hunter is definetly coming and I am not sure that microsoft is giving developers money at all developers I think are supporting the xbox because microsoft has given them good development tools and the xbox has a big enough install base that average games will sell at least a million on the system good games will obviously sell more
