Welcome to this week's Games & Toys update, our Thursday summary, where we are reviewing all related items released during the last 7 days.

As common for this time of the year (the last week before the Japanese Golden Week holiday season), quite an impressive number of new titles have been published in Japan, summing up to roughly 40 releases.

The top seller in this week has been Konami's Winning Eleven 10. Further PlayStation2™ highlights have been the classical Sega Ages releases Panzer Dragoon and Dynamite Deka.

Top handheld seller this week has been Tomy's Nintendo DS™ anime based action game Naruto: Saikyo Ninja Daikesshu 4, followed by the PSP™ releases Winning Eleven 9: Ubiquitous Evolution (PSP the Best) (Asia/Japanese), Rengoku 2: The Stairway to H.E.A.V.E.N. (Asia/Japanese) and Neon Genesis Evangelion 2: Tsukurareshi Sekai - Another Cases (also available as 10th Anniversary Memorial Box).

This week has also been an important one for all toy lovers and collectors. Agastuma BioHazard 4 Collection Figure Vol.2 has just arrived today; additional highlights have been Kingdom Hearts Formation Arts Vol.2 as well as Cave's Ibara Figure Collection Vol.4: Kasumi.
