The Nintendo DS Lite hardware maintained a lead over rival video game offerings in Japan according to the latest retail sales information.

Media Create Co. on Friday reported that the DS Lite sold 139,835 units from Sept. 18 - Sept. 24. By comparison Sony’s PS2 sold 32,673 units, and the PSP 23,118 units in the same period.
