The UK charts are now in courtesy of GFK Chart Track and it hasn’t been a particularly good week for Nintendo. As you can see from the charts below it is dominated by Xbox One and PlayStation 4 titles. In fact there’s not a Nintendo title in the entire top forty with Final Fantasy Explorers and LEGO Marvel Avengers (Wii U) nowhere to be seen. That being said it has been a rather quiet week on the software front with only one new release.

“Xbox, go home”
“Xbox is about to become the next water cooler”
“One of the fascinating new additions to your squad is a dog. This is someone you care about”
This video never gets old.
Nintendo’s game droughts are dryer than California.
-||Said the dog that comes from an even drier origin||-
Well no shit, but its okay. It’s not your fault.
Another pathetic week for Nintendo. Not a single game in the Top 40. There must be tumbleweeds blowing through their UK marketing department.
who cares anymore. in the UK they only like UK/Shooting/Sports/Sports/SPORTS
As I’ve said before, you’re comparing sales of multiplatform games to single-platform games.
Good try though.
oh lel,
I suggest you click on the source. Even on the individual formats chart there’s no Nintendo titles nor any titles on Nintendo platforms.
Nice try though.
~*Don’t mind Headache. He’s just damage controlling for Nintendo. Then again, I should take my own advice. *looks at my comment to him below* lol*~
You seem to have trouble spelling “Hardacre.” ;D
~*You’d have a point if these multiplatform games were being grouped as one sale but they aren’t. Good try, though.*~
They are because the games reach a much broader audience. They are well known for selling a crap ton of games on any platform. CoD was one of the best selling games on the Wii and (sadly) continues to be a top seller today on just its name sake.
~*You could say this is just Europe & it’s usual bad tastes but… there comes a point where that excuse for Nintendo doing so bad there just becomes mere damage control.*~
