Nice to see FarCry 3 bounce back into first place, again (on the single format chart, at least... darn the combined forces that keeps a *bah* football game up there)! :p Well deserved, for a fun romp of a game.

Wii U is a market irrelevance. Nobody wants it, nobody is buying it.

Anarchy Reigns entering at 16 probably says a fair bit about how down numbers across the board will be during these early January weeks. I can't imagine that game sold that well at all yet is good enough for a 16th entry. Those 30-40 positions will be selling really small amounts, which in turn says even more about the sales of Wii U games.

I can only see a Mario Kart Wii U sparking some life back in the console, and it needs to be awesome and not only a HD version of the Wii one.
 
Hmm, just for a broad view of the numbers.

FIFA (all formats):
Week 01 = <58.9K
Week 02 -47% = <31.2K

The split has typically been about 50:30 (360:pS3).

If that split holds the 4th position on the individual formats will be <10K.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 (all formats) Week 2 - less than 22.282 ( -41%)

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Wisened sages of the west here in the UK market rightfully decide the Ninja Gaiden franchise is dead.

Was talking to some friends about the Wii U the other day.

General consensus from them was 1. Not enough worthwhile games now and not many on the horizon and 2. Too expensive for what it is.

I have a Wii U, and I like it. But I strongly agree with the first point above.

Ouch.

I think Nintendo's biggest mistake was leaning so heavily on ports.

I think Nintendo's biggest mistakes were with the Wii. I bought a Wii at launch and have no interest in Wii U because of my experience with the Wii. Roll on PS4.

Rayman: Legends is coming out soon for the Wii U, hopefully it'll appear in these charts.

That's a lot of FIFA 2013.

I hope so too, but I'm calling it now; I don't think Rayman Legends will chart at all.
Rayman Origins didnt chart in its release week (and not in the next either) eventhough it was on platforms with much bigger userbase :\ This was in late November however.

I do think that Rayman Legends actually has a very good chance to chart this time around. Rayman Origins for Vita charted at 6th place in the Top 40 when it was released. If that port could chart that high, i think Rayman Legends has a very good chance to chart as well.

I'm still not sure if Ubisoft got paid BIG-TIME or Ancel lost his goddam mind. I'd love to have the kinda income again right now where I could just impulse buy a WiiU to play Legends and nothing else, but I don't.

I can only assume some form of porting will occur, and maybe a Rayman Castle Run game with the art assets too to make this endeavour anywhere near profitable.

Yeah, NG has never really been a chart success so I really didn't expect to see it doing well on the Wii U.

It didn't seem to do so bad at one point. NG3 was very badly received which probably didn't help.
