Golden Week is over and done with, so this week’s chart represents a bit of a cooldown period. Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2 Professional remained at the top of the chart for another week, and was followed closely by The Reminiscences of Haruhi Suzumiya for the PlayStation 3 at #2.

 

Nintendo’s Steel Diver also saw its release, debuting at a modest 17,408 units, as did Doki Doki Suikoden, at a tiny 4,559 units. The full chart for the week is as follows:
