This week’s UK charts are now in via GFK Chart Track and as you can see it has been a quiet week. The big new entry this week is the Division by Ubisoft for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 which entered the charts at number one as many had predicted it would. What is interesting is sales of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD have dropped by 84% in its second week. Here’s the best-selling games this week in the United Kingdom.

-||Now 100x at least and that’s where I want to see Federation Force||-
Not surprised. It’s the UK…and a shitty Zelda remake lol.
*Remaster
**port
No it’s a remaster dumbass.
It was a joke. As the game is basically a port with minimal upgrades.
Nothing shitty about it. Is quite good actually.
Watch yiur tongue! Some of us love that game you SOB!

Most of the people with a Wii U who wanted a game ran out and bought it right away. Its not like there’s been anything big releases on the console, as compared to PS4/XBO. Not surprised
Exactly not surprised at all because the ps4 and Xbox are constantly getting games
Really? The biggest complaint I have heard from every corner of the industry is that no console is getting a lot of games. I know people with all different systems, everyone aside from PC gamers complain about a lack of games.
Now that all depends on what each individual likes and what they like in each genre they play for example once I get a ps4 possibly this year I will have a huge back log of games to play and that is because of the many genres of games I play and with what I like to play etc etc and the ps4 and xbone still have much more to play then the wii u that is a fact
Well see, that argument goes both ways. If someone bought a Wii U now, they’d have a decent sized backlog of games. Hell, I even have a baglog having owned a Wii U a while (no help of Xenoblade X). If you’re into more of the cinematic over the shoulder third-person shooter games (Last of Us and every game like it) then go for the other systems. But don’t hate on Nintendo, it’s undeserved. They mess up, sure, but they’re a huge corporation, it happens sometimes.
amen on that, I hate seeing people blindly hate for no apparent reason. On the top note, All of the consoles have been in the drought, nintendo started it, but the ps4 proved you can sell off hype and get nothing for a while. PS4 and XBOX ONE are just slapping their dicks of who has the bigger one in system comparison, however, there are games on those systems I want to have and its unnerving to just hearing rumors of games and systems…NX (yeah I’m looking at you annalists spreading rumors…pachter).
That all depends on the games they like and in how many genres and I play a wide variety of games in several genres and they have been shit for years now they should have been with the times years ago they are fucking trash god damn it but hopefully with the nx everything goes alright
I was surprised twilight princess hd was a good seller in the first place. Especially when it’s a old game with redone textures that and it’s on Wii witch the wiiu can play via backwards compatible.
I guess the amiibo was the selling point huh?
Not surprised. Zelda fans don’t wait around. If they want it, they’ll have got it already.
Not really surprised honestly, I feel like nintendo has the wii u is on it last legs(Granted it still being supported by them). The only games i know that are coming out for it are pokken, starfox, that SMT/FE game and zelda u.
Everyone who wanted it have it now.
I still play the Wii version and find it to be just fine. I enjoyed Majoras Mask and Ocarina of Time much more story wise. I will say Twilight Princess is pretty massive, its a beautiful and extremely fun game.
like most of the previous post, i agree, its not surprising. i dont know that there where that many people who wanted to get this one. and all the ones that did (myself included) got it first day. what ever nintendo was going to make on this, they were going to make it in that first weekend.
now that im looking at the numbers, doesnt it seem like… dropping from the number 1 spot to number 10, with an 84% decrease in sales show how much they actually sold? it looks like even though its not the #1 tittle it still sold more units than most. granted give it another week and it could be surpassed. but still, maybe there were more people buying this than i had initially anticipated. hmm?
Nintendo has been doing this for way too long!!! i wont by a game i have already played through, seems nintendo is falling futher n futher away from what the public really want…………….sitting here watching a gaming giant fail again and again
Well, you’re not entirely correct here. I know maaaany people who couldn’t get the full experience from the original TP (the Wiimote just wasn’t a responsive enough tool for something so in depth). And, to aid this, they remastered it, making it: 1.) a better experience to play through and 2.) a newer, shinier game for the new-comers to the game. More like watching a gaming giant want to keep the growing generations interested in their best games.
Why does Nintendo get this backlash more than the other companies? Every game company does this.
read that last part as: “Why does Nintendo get this BACKSLASH more than the other companies?”

Nintendo are fucking scrubs where are the games
Deku Scrubs have a place within the empire. I can’t say the same for common filth like yourself.

The link didn’t work. That’s the last time I’m using a wikia as an image source.
Don’t kick yourself. It happens. :)
Little kid Nintendo is fuckin trash especially compared to the competition where are the games you should know Nintendo has been extremely lacking with games on the wii u unless if you are another one of the drones on this website it should be common sense by now unless if you are in denial
Insolent fool. There is no denying Nintendo is the last thread holding the tradition of gaming in place. Where we lead, all others follow. If the competition was so “competent” why then are they resort to imitation day in and out. If Nintendo chose to go strictly mobile 7 years ago, your petty rulers would no doubt follow suit. That is why they persistently innovate. Even where innovation is unwanted and unnecessary. The least corporate company exists today. That is why you are here in this place. You are free to vent and express. So long as you are truly passionate about true gaming. Though if I find you to be a troll I will have you destroyed.
You have to be a retarded ignorant child suffering from alzheimers and what tradition are you talking about lol I play video games that is it and it doesn’t matter which console and I don’t care what Nintendo lead in because they don’t lead in making games and imitation is obviously not bad especially if they improve but if they don’t I don’t care I want to play games and if Nintendo went mobile then they would be complete utter horse shit and I just want to play games that is all and ha ha lol what is true gaming explain retarded kid and of course I will vent this shit is frustrating where are the games that cater to me and people like me and not all of this kiddy shit and of course shit no one wants and nobody is trolling all because I express my opinion on several articles does not mean I’m trolling you insignificant ignorant child god fuckin damn it where are the games this shit is sad and hopefully the nx doesn’t end up like the wii u because if that were to happen there is nothing no one can say to damage control Nintendos ignorance and fuckin stupidity
“child suffering from alzheimers”
LOL you are the best troll, seriously
I speak my mind like the real bruce Lee did and my comedy is like a comedians there is no limit to what can and cannot be said but that is funny ha ha
Watching you wriggle and squirm is quite amusing.
Keep being a retarded drone I thought metroid was better then that o well you have the glorious federation force to play once that comes out and I will try it myself but Nintendo has let a lot of people down throughout these years and it just keeps happening Nintendo is going down the gutter as utter fuckin trash
The fire within you burns hot. With a little direction, you may be a powerful ally. Become my apprentice and experience the full power of the Dark side of Nintendo.
I will continue in my own way and Nintendo needs to not be shit
A shame. I see so much promise. In any case, all are welcome here. Though, since you are becoming a regular, I do recommend getting yourself an Avatar via WordPress. I advised Boss Ass Bitch the same and he has since become one with our dysfunctional family.
Nope I’m good and nintendo will forever be trash until I see vast improvements which will most likely take years
What consoles do you own? Not counting the ones made pre-8th-gen.
Vita, n64, ds lite, psp and what I am going to own this year will be a ps4 and a new 3ds xl and possibly a wii u but if not then next year with a xbone and a ps3 and possibly ps2 and from then on I will get any system with games I like to play
holy suck bro if you dont like nintendo dont buy their shit. just fuck off you are on EVERY post complaining like a fucking little girl. No fans of nintendo give a shit about your ridiculously stupid opinions. HOW OLD ARE YOU?
I somewhat like Nintendo because of a few games I have yet to play other than that I am a disgruntled fan who wants Nintendo to improve but hopefully with the nx the console side can do good because of course the handheld side is doing good which I will get a new 3ds xl sometime this year because there are a lot of games to play but Nintendo has been fuckin shit this generation and nope I’m not on every post it seems you are an ignorant fool ya little child and no one is complaining I’m posting the problems with Nintendo and my opinion and if you don’t like it scroll past it or comment and get shitted on and so you are a drone who accepts everything Nintendo does and you like all of it get the fuck outta here and no my opinion is frustration Nintendo is getting destroyed by Sony and Microsoft and you don’t need to know my age little kid you can eat shit and drone to Nintendo all you want
If nintendo tries to launch the NX, and doesn’t get 3rd parties on board, and just releases a few 1st party games a year, I don’t know how they can survive.
Count on a Mario at launch. They can make those in their sleep.
I’m so glad I have another gaming box. Except for days I boot my wiiU for X, it just sits there now. I’m keeping it for a couple more games, and it’s fast internet browser.
Exactly Nintendo need to learn from there huge mistakes and yeah I have a feeling the launch will be mediocre at best and yeah I’m glad I have a vita and Nintendo ds and n64 and will get a ps4 and 3ds xl later this year and I will get a xbone probably next year when scale bound launches and I will eventually get a ps3 and I just played x again today I will play it every now and then and are you getting the crossover
Oh, I can’t wait for the crossover and I also am really looking forward to Scalebound!!
Will you get the crossover and scale bound day one when they launch
He’s a troll, bro. You’re wasting your time. Just wait for him to get banned like everyone else is doing.~
I am aware of this. When interesting news is low I maintain the troll pen.
But when the game Last of us was on PS4 that was ok.
I’m pretty sure I remember people talking shit about that too. But it’s the internet, and talking shit has become the internet’s primary function tbh
To be fair, Sony wasn’t completely relying on The Last of Us to hold over PS4 owners until the next game; there’s a steady flow of games. I bought Twilight Princess, which is the first Wii U game that I’ve bought since Smash 4 came out.
well then you missed out on Splatoon and Mario Maker tbh
I checked Cex, game and game central for the game and none of them had it on display :/ the wii U game section in game in Lincoln is 1 shelf that is 5 games wide :(
i was at toys are us the other day and i saw a pretty fair selection of games for all consoles. im talkin full cases of each. i also noticed about the same amount of games im interested in on both ps4 and wii u (not interested in anything xbox has to offer at the moment but that could change, just sayin) so to anyone saying “theres just no games”…it sounds like a personal problem. from where im standing it looks to me that i have plenty of games to play. and still more that have yet to come out that im looking forward to.
Of course they did nintendo, what did you expect? You ruined your name by not releasing the so called “harcore” to the brodudes, and expected to float long with a remake in HD? You guys need to put your boxing gloves back on and fight like you did before. Glad you are no longer going for the “casuals” knowing you should have stayed along the gamecube/N64 era type games…
Whether it’s sales have gone down due to everyone that wanted the game already have it or whether it went down because everyone that was willing to pay full price for what should have been less than 50 bucks already have it, least it did as well as it did it’s first week & still sold enough to be in the top 10 this week.
More importantly, any news on the Wolf Link amiibo being sold by itself in the US yet? Or do I need to import the damn thing where it is being sold by itself?
It was the most preorded game…period. Of course they’re going to drop. Everyone got their preorders and now it’s moved on to normal sales. Any sales would drop from that insane amount of perorders.
And this article is rather click-baity. They only moved to 10th out of forty and the title makes it sound like it’s screwed altogether.
And holy crap, after looking through the list, am I the only one saddened by how 95% of the list is shooters?
