'N+' finally gets toppled by surprising casual juggernaught 'Brain Challenge', debuting its first full week on the charts with 26,000 units - #3rd overall for best full weeks. FPS classic 'Doom' increases units sold strongly by 110%, and Assault Heroes does very similarly.
Since the February release of N+ on Xbox Live Arcade, the developers at Metanet have apparently locked themselves away in a secret underground Toronto location, cranking out new levels like true design ninja.

At the 2008 Game Developers Conference in San Francisco, Mare Sheppard (Metanet Software Inc.) and Nick Waanders (Slick Entertainment Inc.) gave a presentation about the development of N+ for Xbox LIVE Arcade. These are the slides used for the presentation.
VGChartz reports that this week, Triggerheart Excelica launched to decent numbers. Triggerheart Excelica is the 2nd ever Dreamcast game to come to the XBLA Service, with Rez HD being the first. Excelica beats previous $10 Schmup recordholder, Omega 5's debut of 6,000 units by a decent 20% increase.
N+ always intended to let players upload custom levels for anyone to download, but Microsoft nixed the feature at the last second.
PS3Fanboy reports that N+ creators Metanet confirmed a PSN version of N+ (recently released on Xbox 360) is definitely in the works. However, it will not appear on the service any time soon. "Yes, however due to an exclusivity clause in our XBLA contract, it may not be for a while."
