It's been a slow week for video games in Japan due to Obon, one of the nation's traditional holidays. As such, there were no new software releases. On the PlayStation side of things, the only game really worth mentioning is the Yakuza 3 remaster on PlayStation 4, which dropped from first all the way down to 14th.
As for the console itself, the PS4 saw a slight increase in sales, the base model jumping to just under 21,000 units.

PS4 officially crossed the 7 million mark in Japan this week!
When both xboxes fail to pass a hundred units in a week, ouch.
