Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies debuted in first place on the Japanese charts this week, topping Dragon's Crown releases on PS3 and Vita - even when combined.

Capcom's 3DS title moved 250,216 units, and combined, Dragon's Crown moved 175,442 with the PS3 offering selling 33,276 units more than the Vita version.

The Witch and the Hundred Knights also debuted for the period, and moved 49,209 units for a fourth place spot. Other debuts in the top 10 for the week included Level-5's Fantasy Life Link! (3DS - 18,234), and LEGO City Undercover (Wii U - 18,199).

On the hardware side of things, while 3DS LL was still the best-selling system, sales were down week over week. The only offering to show growth were PSV, 3DS, and PS3, respectively.
