This week’s UK charts are now in courtesy of GFK Chart-Track. Though a little later than usual, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare has nabbed the top spot on its debut week. The first-person shooter title has unsurprisingly knocked EA’s FIFA 15 from the top of the charts, as it gets booted out of the top 5 for the first time in six weeks.
Nintendo 3DS titles such as Tomodachi Life and Super Smash Bros still remain within the top 20, while Mario Kart 8 seems to have stepped it up a notch and propelled itself form 34 to 25 this week – possibly due to the upcoming Zelda x Mario Kart 8 DLC. Skylanders Trap Team also re-enters at 36 for Nintendo’s last generation console; the Wii. Here’s a look at the UK top 40 individual chart in full.

we never get the U.S sales on this site.
I post the US sales every month as soon as we get the data from the NPD. Here’s last months http://mynintendonews.com/?s=npd
Thanks sickr I guess I missed it and thanks for the link!
Not a problem :-)
Does anyone know how well (or bad) Bayonetta did in the U.S.? Really hoping it did decent here at least since everywhere else it didn’t do well apparently.
It did decent in the U.S., sold about 200,000 first week. Problem is it only sold 50,000 in Japan, and 50,000 in Europe.
Damn man, decent is decent so that’s good, but Platinum never get what they put in :(
True enough.
Games like Mad World and Anarchy Reigns were great games in the action genre, but they never got any recognition for those, either…
Yea, I think it will get a holiday boost. It’s at a little over 300k right now, more than likely it will be at 500k after Christmas. Who knows, maybe 1m lifetime? It could happen. One good thing is that it’s doing better than wonderful 101 did.
Where did you get the EU -numbers? So far all I’ve seen is UK ones.
call of duty is just boring as shit sorry for my potty mouth
Poor Bayonetta, such an amazing game yet can’t even stay in top 40.
You and critics think it is an amazing game but the UK,Europe and Japan do NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT IT!
B2 was a game NO ONE wanted and then people wonder why it sells like crap all over the world?
Everyone wanted it, they just didn’t want it on wii u and held a grudge against Nintendo for funding a game they wanted that never would have existed if Nintendo didn’t. Guess you missed the huge outrage from sony and microsoft fans when it was announced as a Nintendo exclusive.
No, that’s BS.
If they had really wanted it that badly, they’d have supported the first game better, and they wouldn’t have hesitated to support the second one no matter where it released.
They’re not Bayonetta fans if they skipped it entirely due to not wanting a Wii U.
No, it’s not BS. Those fanboys would rather not play an amazing game than go against their console of choice. They wont buy a Wii U until thier friends have one and they are cool. Don’t you know that game quality doesn’t matter in this day and age? It’s all about hype and grafixxx. Where have you been.
What I meant is, it’s BS that these people really wanted the game.
If they had wanted it badly enough, they would have had no issues getting a new console for it.
Oh. Yea, your probably right.
The Evil Within is interesting…
I know it. the trailers I saw for it freaked me out!
I have it on PC and believe me the game is very underwhelming. It gets boring and very repetitive If you ask me Bethesda is starting to lose their way as far as creating fun quality games are concerned but Wolfenstein: The New Order was pretty decent
That’s disappointing to hear but not very surprising.
we would get better games if idiots stop supporting this garbage give me a good jrpg any day beats this trash all to hell but we dont get more good 1s cuz people are murdurous morons that just want to shoot shit. this is call of dooooodie they are all the same sheeple are just morons
Put your name to that comment, then it means more.
More bitching and whining from someone who thinks their opinion is better than others. Waaaaaaaaaah.
You would think multiplatform titles would count as ONE SLOT, especially if they were well received for more than one console.
Seriously, half the games on the list are multiplats and repeats of the same game no less.(I dare anyone to list how many DIFFERENT titles are actually there) Does it hurt it just to avoid repeating a name on the list and just label it as “Multi” or something similar. Otherwise, it’s just plain redundant and it really saturates the list with padding which could be used to see what are the top INDIVIDUAL games.
UKIE does have an all-formats chart, as well as an individual chart. We post the latter. You can see the all-formats chart here, if you wish: http://www.chart-track.co.uk/index.jsp?c=p/software/uk/latest/index_test.jsp&ct=110015
Incoming Nintendo fanboys saying UK doesn’t have any taste because no Nintendo titles are on top of the list…
I thibk the reason people are saying they have no taste is because the same games are in the top charts pretty much all year round (looking at you FIFA)
And yet if it was just Mario games in the top 5 for any region, Nintendo fanboy wouldn’t have a problem.
Just saying Europe is full of hairy apes who only want FIFA and cod
problem with mynintendo news
I’d say most countries have bad taste these days. And I think that is because there are a lot more younger people starting to game and older people who never used to game who now made gaming mainstream. If you think call of duty should be number 1 every year I don’t think you have very good taste. I am surprised Alien Isolation wasn’t higher, that seemed like a much more interesting game than yet another COD. And I haven’t even mentioned Nintendo games by the way in this, so don’t throw me in the fanboy slot. Madden & Fifa shouldn’t be at the top of the list every year, but sports fans who think they are gamers make it happen. If you only play sports games and an occasional shooter, I don’t consider you a true gamer. You just play what’s considered cool and acceptable socially as well as hyped. And for the love of god minecraft needs to seriously get the fuck off the top 40 altogether already. It may be a decent game, but you’re kidding yourself if you think it’s THAT good. And these comments are directed personally at you by the way, but the general gamer, so when I say some thing like “you’re kidding yourself if you think it’s THAT good” know that I’m not assuming that you think that it is or isn’t a good game. I’m just giving my opinion on the general state of the current video game audience compared to the older audience.
Japan still has good tastes in games, and I really believe there is still hope for the U.S… But the U.K.? They are doomed to Mountain Dew and Doritos forever.
Hahaha I didn’t even know the U.K. did doritos and dew I thought that was us. You watch South Park by the way? They had a great new episode last wednesday focused on Mobile Gaming. It was so good lol I never expected such a small topic to make it to south park.
It’s not becouse there are not any Nintendo games on the list, it’s becouse the most generic, most popular game is always number one in the U.K…. If all somebody ate and drank was Doritos and Mountain Dew, would you say they have a good taste in food? No, you wouldn’t. They just eat and drink whats popular. What most advertised. Someone who does have good taste wants a prime rib steak, with a loaded baked potatoe, some wine to top it off. The U.K. plays and buys whats popular, and whats heavily advertised by the big coorporations. Like Mountain Dew and Doritos. I’m sorry if it offends you, but the U.K. does not have good taste when it comes to video games. In fact, they have very poor taste…
They re European what do you expect. I mean the bastards even drive on the wrong side of the car and road
Europeans however do have England so I’ll give them that
wiiu
problem with
Oh look what time of year it is! It’s terrible game time!
Incidentally, clearly they don’t count Steam sales, because Football Manager 2015 would have definitely outsold each individual version of CoD: AW otherwise.
the wiiu sucksessor will be release soon because nintendo is messing with peoples minds
Aw is poop
and fuck!!! all the Uk haters will come and describes how bad is the united kingdom and bla bla bla ble but forget to mention their chart is similar to UK one… let’s the party start!!!!!!
Yeah. Everyone will complain and start generalizing. Acting like everyone from the UK wants to play Fifa. I mean, I am an American and everyone is crazy about NFL and all that nonsense but I can careless about dumb football games. :/
when we look at US chart NBA is normally more popular than NFL. Am i correct or I got that one wrong?
Probably. They talk about that just as much over here.
I’m surprised if NBA games sell more than Madden games. Not saying it isn’t true, just that I am legitimately surprised cause NBA is bigger than it’s been in a while, but good ol’ american boys love their football like they’re supposed to, sipping on their cheap watered down bud and miller lights. Yee haw boy!
U.S. is just the same, as an american I can say we are no better.
It’s not just UK haters, it’s also people from the UK like myself who lament their country’s taste in games.
It has nothing to do with hating the U.K…. I like the U.K. just fine, they just play shitty games, thats a fact. Compare thier top ten to any other top ten list. Sickr posted a link to the U.S. top ten up above, compare that to the U.K. charts. It’s always the same with the U.K.. The charts stay the same year over year.
UK still buying crap. Nothing new or good to see here.
Let’s be honest here though the us and Japanese sales chart aren’t good either.
agree with US but no really with Japan. You have to say the japanese chart has much variety in it.
They do have variety I’ll give you that, but more often than not there are so many good titles that sell so poorly their. It’s so backwards sometimes
Yes they are better. More variety.
here we go…..
seems like people are enjoying their copies of call of dutu advance warfare. damm it what the heck was the treyech wii u team doing this year.
shut up igbo!
So the UK is Activision’s only hope, it seems.
I think this week’s chart is decent :)
All of the great games that Nintendo makes, and Tomodachi Life is one of the few on the charts? Oh, the UK….(- _ -)
Mario Kart 8 is still beasting it, 6 months on. Who says Mario Kart 8 won’t sell well? I bet those people are feeling really dumb right about now……..
Damn how many COD games debuted in the last 12months?
This is the only one, it’s a one per year deal, like Fifa, NBA 2K, WWE 2K, etc…
Video games are done.
Game over.
UK seems to be the toughest market for nintendo to make top sellers.
Talking about bad taste….. And of course no WiiU version of the new COD! Great!!!
Yea, Nintendo is really sinking in the U.K… It’s sad to see really. Pretty soon Nintendo may give up on that market. Why keep pouring resources into a region and get no return? Nintendo gives you guys all the best collector edition games too. Hopefully after Nintendo ditches the U.K. we can start getting the C.E. games again. Nintendo knows where it’s core lives. Forget the U.K. Nintendo, we still got your back.
First person shooters, football (soccer) and Minecraft….. there must be really boring being a gamer in the UK.
