UK Charts: Tomodachi Life Squeezes Into Top 5, Mario Kart 8 In 6th

This week’s UK charts are in courtesy of GFK Chart-Track. It’s a great week for Tomodachi Life yet again as it remains ahead of Mario Kart 8 and just squeezes into the individual chart top 5. The popular Kart racing title comes in behind the life simulation game at number 6. This week’s chart-topper is Minecraft Xbox 360 version, closely followed by the PS3 version in second place.

Meanwhile at the bottom of the individual chart, Animal Crossing: New Leaf for the 3DS re-enters at number 40. Even a year since its initial release the bell-saving, highly addictive game manages to break into the charts once more – possibly due to the school summer break approaching next week.

  1. I’m amazed how great Tomodachi Life is doing in the UK. Considering it’s a very japanese game and Nintendo consoles not selling very well over there.

      1. By calling him that when he wasn’t insulting anything other than your own pride in your favorite games, you are the only fanboy I actually see in this spot, anonbitch.

        1. Instead of calling him a nintendrone, how about you list the games you think are the only good ones on the list. Just be forewarned that if they are just games exclusive to Sony or Microsoft consoles, I’ll blast you with w/e fanboy term there is for them since you were so quick to do the same.

    1. I disagree. GTA V is probably the best game up there followed by Mario Kart 8 of course. Just my opinion.

          1. I don’t see how you gleamed that from one sentence that only talks about the games he thinks were good. For all you know, he’s played a few of those other games & hated them.

    1. Somebody is still going to complain about Watch Dogs and Titanfall being higher despite the fact that Mario Kart 8 is doing good.

      1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

        Yes…

        My complaint though is Minecraft…

        I rather buy CoD rehashes than that overrated civilian game…

        1. Nintendo is my Blood

          NC, don’t be nitpicky

          I would rather have Minecraft any day than pathetic shooters
          at least Minecraft promotes some Adventure and creativity
          although I do think Minecraft is kinda overrated, and by that I mean it shouldn’t be as popular as what it is now, I still think it is a great game

          1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

            It’s the most overrated game ever made…

            Oh look we can build things in 8-bit!

            You could do the same in spore and was better and yet they rather buy this outdated crap…

            1. Nintendo is my Blood

              Yeah, I admit, it is more popular than it should be, just like Angry birds or Flappy bird was more popular and hyped than it should be

              but if I had to be stuck on an island with either Minecraft or every FPS made, I would still pick Minecraft

            2. Okay Commander its more than that. And as a mine craft player who hasn’t played in years. But bought the beta 5 years ago when it was still growing in popularity I can say Console Minecraft is meh. I’m biased to computer mine craft because it literally is endless with mod support. You can literally do anything but to each his/her own.

        2. minecraft is a fun game, give it a chance. don’t like building? try survival. to easy? play hardcore mode. don’t like hardcore? try playing competitive with others. give it a chance, it’s one of my favorite games of all time.

        3. Once you put enough time into it, you will realize that it is amazing. It’s not one of those games you can just pick up and instantly enjoy. It takes months, even years to fully understand it. Used to be a doubter like you, then I played it. And never came out of my room for the rest of that day…

          1. Nintendo is my Blood

            remember NC, every game can have a charm
            Minecraft is similar to Spore (the last stage I mean) infinite possibilities

            Besides, I thought Minecraft would appeal to you, wouldn’t you want to build your own space empire with Iron Golem minions and intricate red stone systems?

                1. Nintendo is my Blood

                  Well the Space stage is similar, both don’t really have an “ending”
                  no like final end to the game, in Minecraft you can still build and explore and in Spore you can still build your empire and explore

              1. Whoa dude. Now you’re taking it out of context. Spore is a dear different game and I actually would’ve prefer that while tolerating EA’s BS than having Minecraft as means to put me to sleep at record time.

                1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

                  Yes…

                  No, Minecraft is for civilians that cannot handle a true game…

                  Exposed…

                  1. so i cant play a real game since i play minecraft
                    dude its actually fun it doesnt need like 50 million sales but its still fun to play with friends and play on servers

                    1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

                      So why coudn’t gamers play Spore then?…

                      Sure it had some bugs but not near enough unplayable…

                      1. Spore is only on PC isn’t it? That’s why I haven’t played it. And plus, if I did have a gaming PC, I wouldn’t have gotten it. It doesn’t appeal to me.

    2. Nintendo is my Blood

      Even ACNL reentered?

      Speaking of which, having been to my town in like 4 months, almost scared to go back

      1. Smh… You can’t ignore your responsibilities! You must visit your town every day or at least week to make sure the citizens are ok! >:( But seriously, let me guess. You stopped playing because of extreme boredom, right? Haha. Animal Crossing is fun, but after you get the Island, fix some stuff up in your town, upgrade your stores, etc, it’s pretty much pointless to keep playing. Used to play everyday. Now I can’t stand it… Lmao.

        1. Nintendo is my Blood

          It wasn’t that more like my save file was erased by technical error and I had to start all over again, and I got far

          also, it felt more like a chore after awhile
          plus new games came out, namely Pokemon, ALBW, Mario Kart 8, couple of eshop games

          scared to go back to see all the weeds and stuff

        2. So did I. If I would’ve known Disney Magical World is coming and how much fun and content rich it has, I would’ve picked that game instead.

    3. Chart is sad like always…no 3rd part for Wii u, other 3rd games out selling Wii u first party… I don’t think Nintendo will get 3rd part especially with games running on unreal engine 4…i like Nintendo, but Sony and Microsoft fan boys clown and make fun of the console so much is embarrassing to own. Why buy the game on Nintendo when you get better graphic on other consoles at the same price.

      1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

        Because we are not graphicwhores that thinks that graphics makes a game great…

        Gameplay is what makes a game great, everything else is secondary priority…

        And I don’t car what those two corrupted forces say about our empire, it’s pathetich, childish and plain ignorant…

      2. The doors were always open for those jackass 3rd parties but they’re too high on their lazy, repetitive asses to even give a damn about Nintendo..as always. Sony/Microsoft can talk shit about Nintendo and each other all they like but there’s one thing they wish they have but will never get it: Nintendo’s games. Usually best in quality, fun and originality, few things that all other asshole 3rd parties have failed and never bother to achieve just to snag the bottom line with their plague of gory shooter games and other kinds of repetitive crap.

      3. “Sony & Microsoft fanboys clown & make fun of the console so much is embarrassing to own.” If you let this effect your decision about owning it & you decide to get rid of it because of that, you will lose respect from the people that like you for the fact you stand out from the asshole “popular” crowd. Fuck that crowd. Fuck the whole world if they are all like that. It’s better to be the master of your own life than to be sheep of someone else. If you give in to the shit, you’re weak & should just get rid of everything that makes you you & bow down to everyone else like a good little slave/puppet. Sorry if this sounds harsh.

    4. From 2nd, down to 10th, then 8th and now 6th place. MK8 is still on a roll here and in UK? What a shock. XD

      I can hear that little Brokeback bitch Sasori crying in his basement corner already. Oh and BTW Brokeback, HA HA! :3 You lose again.
