It was the only debut to chart for the period, and it knocked last week's number one title 3rd Super Robot Wars Z: Tengoku Hen into second and third place.

Minecraft: PlayStation Vita Edition came in fourth after landing in ninth pace the prior week. Since the March 23-29 period, it has jumped from 14th place to its current position.

Bloodborne, which debuted on March 26, fell to sixth place.

Hardware for the week of April 6-12 decreased over the prior week.
