New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe and the Nintendo Switch are killing it in the market. Nintendo’s dominance in Japan is just amazing. I wonder what game is dominating in UK. Last week it was, Kingdom Hearts 3 with Japan’s no.1 now being the sixth. I’ve predicted that New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe will eventually dethrone KH3 there.
New super U deluxe sales are dead the moment Super Mario Maker 2 comes out XD
Silly, it is a Mario game, plus it will more likely join the evergreen Nintendo games. It shall sell well too. Video gaming is alive and well.
F=Ma.
Something from x suck one is probably dominating the UK market…like football manager 2099
PlayStation 4, xbots don’t really buy games except shooters lol. PlayStation video gamers actually like single player exclusives like Spider-Man, Nintendo with Games like Astral chain. Xbots rather play cod halo and other mindless fps games.
F=Ma.
*sees “New” Super Mario Bros U Deluxe outsell Kingdom Hearts III this week*
but kingdom hearts 3 has more sold…
but maybe it will change the next few weeks
