Mere weeks after the release of Monster Hunter 2nd G and the PSP is still managing to maintain its clear dominance in the weekly Japanese sales charts, according to data from marketing research firm Media Create.

For the week ending May 4, the PSP edged past the 100,000 mark in unit sales. Its rival, the Nintendo’s DS, sold 52,542 units during the same time period. That’s nearly less than half of what the PSP sold. But even with these impressive numbers, we can’t imagine that Nintendo is worried much, considering the DS has already sold through 22 million units across Japan, compared to 9 million PSPs.

As usual, the full list of hardware sales can be found after the break.

* PlayStation Portable 100,870
* Wii 71,518
* Nintendo DS Lite 52,542
* PlayStation 3 10,177
* PS2 8,802
* Xbox 360 1,725
