3DS and New Super Mario Bros. 2 reclaim top spots at Japanese retail

This week, last week's number one software title has fallen to fifth place, and has been replaced by New Super Mario Bros. 2. Nacmo's Lost Heroes for 3DS debuted in second place, Max Payne 3 in third for PS3, and Pokemon Black 2 / White 2 rounded out the top five with a fourth place finish.
