Sony continues to see strong hardware sales in Japan for their consoles, with the PSP/PSPgo leading the way again for the week November 15th.

The handheld sold a combined 45,197 for the week, significantly beating out rival handheld the DS/DSi. The PSP-3000 actually saw an increase week-on-week but extremely weak PSPgo demand dropped the overall figure.

The PS3 led console sales, at 38,498, far ahead of both the Wii and the Xbox 360.

Figures for week ended the 15th:

* 01 PlayStation Portable: 45,197

* 02 Nintendo DS: 38,785

* 03 PlayStation 3: 38,498

* 04 Wii: 26,764
