Yay Super Paper Mario!

Good start by MySims too, and RE4 keeps on trucking. Tiger Woods Wii 4th week > Tiger Woods PS3 1st week. Easily the best selling version.

Wii was out of stock again in most (95%) of places i went at the weekend.
Mysims is getting a lot of store presence also

I was in buying Trauma Centre and overheard that GAME were out of stock in Dublin. He said he was surprised as they had received a large shipment the week before and there was a sudden surge.

I guess the summer lull is over.
 
Brain Training is such a monster. I know that's 2 year old news but Jesus. NOA have really dropped the ball by not getting it to be half as popular there as it is in Europe or Japan.

Holy shit wtf bbq barbie at My Sims! Talk about surprise hit.. (lol)
Why is it a surprise hit? The Sims and Animal Crossing were both big in the UK. I expected this to do very, very well. But then again I also saw the big store promos and ads.

These charts are full of wtfs, Strangle holding on, racing games grudge-matching, RFOM not just hanging in there but significantly outselling WOWHAWK during its launch and the whole prolonged accident that is the The Sims franchise.

How long since Tiger Woods/XBox 360 came out?

I'm glad that EA is having a lot of succes on the Wii in the UK because i want them to spend as much resources on the Wii versions of there sports games as the other consoles. I hope this gives them some motivation.

Both the 360 and ps3 are catching up to wii's number of games in the top 40, shouldn't be long now before they over take the wii.

Why would they be any more successful than they are already they mostly advertise the wii version over the others and the others still sell.

Because people like me don't buy them as we don't fall for the hype., therefore it needs to spread like wildfire the game is good for me to buy it!

You should start buying hype it's even better than playing games you like.

Damn, Heavenly Sword looks to have taken a turn for the worse, I thought the UK SDF would have gobbled it up san release, with all the favorable reviews an all?

Not really surprising since most of it's not really had many ads plus the length i'm surprised its even that high maybe it's the bundles.

People can laugh all they like, several months ago you could add all the 360 games and ps3 games in the top 40 chart together and they still wouldnt have had half the amount of games the wii did. NOw the 360 and ps3 are just behind the wii. With more top rated games coming to the 360 and ps3 than the wii will be getting both the 360 and ps3 will soon over take the wii in the number games that chart in the top 40.

ROFL
HA HA HA

Maybe because there are less and less PS2 games being released? And more and more PS3 and 360 games being released???????

Wii has had nothing released before the last 2 weeks for a while in the UK, and its managed to stay on top. And we have etroid, Mario Galaxy and more to come.....!

Wait I just realised even motorstorm outperformed Warhawk.

many europeans got PSN version, just like I did... much cheaper and didnt have to wait at all.

Plus, I am now hearing a lot of frenchies on Euro servers, which didnt happen until last few days...

Forgot about the price though it does have a headset which I would like.

Swedish people used to also trash talk Smurf Hits, yet it didn't stop that bile from burning up the charts.

I possess one of the singles.

Hey, it was the 80's. I was young, naive... in fact, I was *too* young. It was my sister's, got passed on to me.

Yay for plausible deniability!

Looks like the retail version will only be available tomorrow here. Weird, I thought it was supposed to be released last week.

I'm about to agree with spwolf about something. Somebody hold me.

This is probably true, which does make me wonder if we might be looking at download sales being charted at some point in the future the way the music charts changed a little while back.

:lol

This week's chart is probably the best yet for Wii with so many games in top positions. It's not that 360 and PS3 haven't gotten as many games yet (they have), it's just that their games don't sell as well as the Wii games. This applies to the PS3 in particular, just compare the positions of it's recent releases to the positions of Wii's recent releases. (Heavenly Sword debuted at #6 and fell to #13 this week while Super Paper Mario debuted at #3 and climbed to #1 this week, Tiger Woods Wii's fourth week outsold Tiger Woods PS3's first week and is easily the best selling version etc.) Things will only get better for Wii as it overtakes the 360's installed base (I don't think it has happened in the UK yet) and continues to increase it's lead over the PS3.

That has got to be one of the most retarded posts i have ever seen. If their are less ps2 games being released then other games being released have to take their place, more 360 and ps3 games are taking their place instead of wii games, so what's your point?
