UK Charts: Tomodachi Life Sticks At 4, Mario Kart 8 Slides Down To 13

This week’s UK charts are in courtesy of GFK Chart-Track. The oddball and wacky life simulation game, Tomodachi Life, has remained in fourth place this week and refuses to budge from underneath the wings of the Minecraft console versions. Unfortunately, Mario Kart 8 slides out of the top 10 completely, hovering in unlucky number 13 and between the continuously popular Terraria and Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare.

With no new blockbuster contenders, The Last of Us: Remastered Edition remains top of the individual charts, clicking into first place for the second week running. Pokemon X and Y continue to place well as Y moves up to 28 from 30 and X moves from 36 to 35. Make sure to check out the full individual top 40 below.

        1. And it will continue to do well.

          With more and more Wii U’s being sold as a result of HW, B2, Smash etc. over the coming months a lot of these new owners will no doubt pick up a copy of MK8.

          There’s still a lot of mileage to be had.

            1. You wish, foolish creature. Our Empire is going to save the Wii U soon enough just like they did with the 3DS. Now stand out of the way & marvel at the power of Nintendo!

            1. My bad, I meant to say

              Just because I’m a faggot means I’m a faggot, nor does my opinion matter because I am a faggot.

          1. same apply for US just look at their chart. I don’t know where you live but would be interesting to have the one from others countries…. Cause I don’t think it’s a UK thing

    1. No, cause it sells worldwide good, MK8 still on the second spot as best seller in the week, and that is every week, so the power still go on.

      But how many shooters on this list? Gamers right know are not realy gamers, then only want to shoot somebody…

      1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

        Yes but this is just UK I’m talking about…

        And FPS games have been proven now to be military recruitment programs for the US…

        Officially I mean, I’m sure some of us knew about this years ago too…

        1. Goes to show how FPS games are revolutionizing industries which aren’t even related to gaming. Meanwhile rehashes like the stupid shit Nintendo puts out is just helping children be stuck in their basement crying for mommy

          1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

            The only way these “games” are revolutionizing is turning the already blind sheep into blind slaves…

          2. I took a lot of shrooms earlier, so I’m correcting everything I said perviously.

            It goes to show that I was extremely butthurt that people were enjoying wii u while I sat in the corner and masturbated to my butthurt with a PS move up my ass while recording myself with a kinect. I’m just a stupid shit because I am the really baby crying out to his mommy while ejaculating all over myself in the basement.

          3. Change your name to Joe L. It can be short for loser. Now run along you sasori/nostalgia_w/donko wannabe.

          1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

            I know, it’s even worse in the US and Sweden…

            It wans’t really talking about the UK in my second sentence…

  1. Why is no one impressed about how good is Tomodachi Life doing here in the west? For a new IP in Europe or America is doing much better than anyone expected.

      1. A. If it’s so Hardcore, then why is it 7 places below Tomodachi Life, and
        B. Pretty much everything you XBots think are hardcore is just a shooter…

        1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

          Not even that, they think only watching an action packed cinematic trailer of a game is enough to be considered hardcore…

          Pathetic…

          1. So? Stories captivate gamers, which is what game should be aiming for. You’re just salty Mario has a loser story and the cinematics of a 80’s film

            1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

              Books and Movies have far better stories than the D-Class garbage most games have had since the last generation…

            2. Correction. You are right commander, I am salty because Nintendo is better entertainment than me watching videos of myself masturbating in the corner.

  2. EVERYONE LET’S DO A WORTHLESS POLL!

    NAME WHO YOU THINK ARE OR WERE THE 5 BIGGEST TROLLS AND FANBOYS TO GRACE THIS SITE!

      1. I would swap 1 and 3.

        Sasori comments are so stupid they are actually hilarious, while Shuhei comments are just stupid and irritating. I bet that guy could strike an argument with him/herself.

          1. Nah, I would say Shuhei is a complete retard, especially after seeing how many times he revealed that he couldn’t tell the difference between a spin-off, a remake, a rehash, and new game of Mario.

  3. Not hating on the last of us, or hardcore ps fans, but why buy the remake if u already have it, I mean yeah u get free DLC, but by the time u buy it again u will have spent 120 bucks on the game, photo mode doesn’t look interesting, Frame rates better , but never notice a issue with ps3’s, and not to mention nothing is being pushed, the ps3 version still looks fantastic. I understand for the people didn’t play it the first go but is real necessary to buy the game again.

              1. Why are shooters top tier? Because I am a huge faggot sitting on a cactus, while being shot with sperm by 50 men. I hate platformers because it doesn’t allow me to be a faggot.

              2. If you really believe that, you’re a bigger loser than I thought. Hell! You’re probably one of those little bastards or losers online cussing & yelling like an utter idiot everytime you lose AND win because you think it makes you “mature.”

        1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

          Yes but they don’t remake them right after the original is released…

          And I never bought NSMBU and I’ll never will because it’s simply a lazy rehash…

          1. Well, in the case of TLOU it made sense to remaster it, as the new generation pretty much arrived right after its initial release. Also, there was extremely high demand, as the sales numbers obviously show.

          2. play the game…. I have both new super Mario and the Wii U version is quiet good. Super Mario Wii U make a lot of sense for me and It a must have game for every wii U owners.

    1. That’s kinda the point of (HD) remakes, getting a game that looks better than before + has some new/improved features. And the whole thing seems to be working just fine, seeing how TLOU Remastered apparently managed to sell more than 1.5 million units in its first 24 hours.

  4. WE GOT 1 ANSWER SO FAR ON THIS WORTHLESS POLL! THIS INDEED IS A FAIL BUT INTERESTING AS WELL! WE NEED MORE ANSWERS! WE NEED TO FIND WHAT EVERYBODY THINKS!

    1. Hmmm… very tough, so many to choose from, here are my opinions:
      1. Sasori
      2. Shuhei Yoshida
      3. Stranga
      4. Nostalgiawww
      5. Aeolus

        1. There’s a big difference between a guy with strong opinions who can back them up or at least make sense even though no one else may not agree with them, and with opinions designed to antagonise and create arguments for the sake or creating them, i.e. a troll.

          1. “Strong” is an understatement for Shuhei… From what I notice he mostly argues with the regulars here, ESPECIALLY Stranga. Hey at least he’s not off topic though, which is what idiots like sasori does most of the time

  5. I try SO hard to like Tomodachi Life. But I get tired of it in only 10-15 minutes each time. There’s only so much that can be done each day, and most of the things in this game either has no real point, or it makes no sense. It’s the kind of game that makes you feel like you’re on drugs or something.

    And it would be SO much funnier if characters could pronounce words better. They all sound like mumbling robots. They can’t even pronounce the word “America” or “American” properly (among many other words). And it doesn’t even pay to tweak with the accents and quality of the voices. All that does it scramble their voice so much that you can’t understand them.

    And I hate how the Mii’s need a birthdate before you can test their compatibility. I have to edit every Mii now just to give them a phony birthdate. Ok, I’ll shut up now.

  6. MK8 is amazing, being in that list for so long. Not to worry, there’ll be many more Wii U games to come, Hyrule Warriors, Captain Toad, Bayonetta 2, and the best of them all, Smash Bros. Wii U has a great future looking forward

                1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

                  Well there is no such thing as luck in my existence…

                  There is only the statistical probability my system can calculate based on multiple factors…

  7. Nintendo losing steam? That’s so fucking predictable. Mario Kart 8 DESERVES to sell like shit, what a goddamn casual piece of shit that game is

  8. Wow. When I get a PS4, The Last Of Us will definitely be one of the first games I buy. I really wanna try it out. :)

  9. well it a logic consequence that MK8 slipping as the months go by. TBH MK8 is not multi-platform to start with. The Wii U is not selling as good as the other two. Again for the folks who do not live in UK and do not know what’s going on, Sony and Microsoft are way much more marketed than Nintendo Wii U.

    It’s simple, retailer does not even display the Wii U or a game. If they have a Wii U section it’s so small you can pass by it and miss it. Again Nintendo UK doing a very bad job, which is not the case for France, Italy,Belgium,Switzerland and Germany.

    Also if you happen to catch it by mistake, one episode of big bang theory slag the Wii U while Xbox one and PS4 were the star of this episode.

    PS4 and xbox one have way much TV advert in a week than wii U in 3 months.

    My understanding of Nintendo UK’s strategy is:” let’s just put an ad for 2 weeks and wait for the words of mouth to work”.

    1. It is true that the Wii U has very little exposure in the UK. The supermarkets haven’t help. They just sell PS4 & XBone because when the parents go into the stores the kids demand those systems and games.

      The UK console sales of the Wii U are significantly behind the ‘other two’. However, globally the Wii U has remained consistently ahead of the XBone for over six months. If I was the Microsoft XBone director I would be having kittens right now.

      1. then you agree that the sale strategy in UK is not good (and I am generous) and those guys do a very bad job(again I stay polite and generous). Cause in all honesty the Wii U is a good console and have a huge potential which are not exploited by their sales team.

  10. sasorideidara obi the puppet master clown destroyer

    having a fun playing as trevor in gta v on my xbox 360. frankline is a cool guy and micheal has a funny family.

    1. Good. GTA V is amazing and definitely deserves all the high review sites it got. And my personal favorite from the game is Michael. Lol all the characters are great.

    2. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

      We need to see evidence and a receipt to validate your claim that you have bought a Xbox 360…

  11. Should I mention that Watchdogs passed MK8 again?…..nah. I’m cooler than that. This is still a decent week for Nintendo with some solid spots in there!
