Though this week's chart is still flooded with PSP titles from the system's Australian launch two weeks ago, normalcy is beginning to reassert itself:
Pokémon Emerald wasted no time in rebounding from #9 to #1 in this week's all-format retail charts, and even
Cricket 2005 has poked its head back in near the bottom reaches. (NB: Though
Cricket is listed as #9, it may in fact be #8, owing to a formatting error in the week's charts that makes it difficult to tell.)
Newcomers to the chart are
Charlie & The Chocolate Factory on GBA courtesy of GlobalStar, and Rockstar's
Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition on PSP. Most of the other PSP games on the chart have slipped a couple of positions but maintain a presence on the charts, indicating that the new handheld may continue to be a force in Australian retail so long as developers can continue to supply new product.
