[Katana_Strikes]

Outside of hardware bundles, Xbox software is shocking. It's not been helped by little in the way of new releases but Xbox owners seem to be buying few standalone titles. Unless 9/10 people are downloading or game sharing

Good for FF. I knew it could do it. Crash is still seemingly not in full supply but will continue to sell well over time. Acti just needs to sort out its stock management better.

Look like crash will be getting BIU award soon. BTW has HZD gotten > 200k award?

GTA needs to have its own award leaderboard

 

[KillerMan91]

At least here in Finland Crash is still pretty much completely sold out everywhere. Estimate day for getting a copy our from biggest internet retailer is 31.7...

 

[OfficerRaichu15]

How the hell??
Madden did over 100k on PS4 there!??
Damn guess football must be growing in EU.

Microsoft's $400 million NFL initiative finally paid off.

 

[Stilton Disco]

This is still physical only right? I've not been in a chart topic in a few years.

Crazy to see the previous difference in position between PS4 and XBO Call of Duty. Complete role reversal in the UK.

Bundles and marketing rights really do seem to have an effect on buying habits, even taking into account the hardware difference.

I kind of wonder how long it'll be before the shift in marketing has the same effect on FIFA...

 

[dex3108]

Man Wildlands and For Honor are monster games for Ubisoft this year. With South Park and AC Origins this will be good year for Ubisoft. Add to that Far Cry 5 and The Crew in first half of the next year and they will start 2018 strong too.

 

[chadskin]

How the hell??

Damn guess football must be growing in EU.

In 2015 they started broadcasting select matches live on free-to-air TV here and the sport's been growing more popular since, with about 300-500K viewers per regular season game and about 2M viewers for the Super Bowl.

"...is Square's first No1 since ‘Deus Ex: Mankind Divided' topped the All Formats Top 40 in week 34, 2016."

So FFXV didn't reach #1? But a FFXII remake did?

"...is Square’s first No1 since ‘Deus Ex: Mankind Divided’ topped the All Formats Top 40 in week 34, 2016."

It launched with Fifa.

 

[JonnyKong]

I wonder if Splat 2 will make it to number one next week.

 

[Humdinger]

It launched with Fifa.

Ah.

 

[Katana_Strikes]

I wonder if Splat 2 will make it to number one next week.

I'd be surprised if it doesn't. Not that I think it's going to sell anything great mind. I assume bundles will help it too with it perhaps being a limited way to get a Switch.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

What else is coming next week aside from Splatoon 2? Splat 2 should be number one without issue.

 

[Pankratous]

Hand egg is definitely growing in popularity in my view

UK definitively isn't jumping on Switch ship.

Renewed stock of Activision Blizzard’s ‘Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy’ helps it regain No1 from ‘Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age’ which drops to No7.

[...]

‘Splatoon 2’ outperforms the original becoming the 3rd biggest ever Switch launch, behind Zelda and Mario. Both ‘Mario Kart 8 Deluxe’ and ‘The Legend of Zelda: The Breath of the Wild’ bounce back in to the Top 10 to No’s 4 and 6 respectively. It is Mario’s highest chart position since its third week of launch.

 

[Hasney]

UK definitively isn't jumping on Switch ship.

They're selling out still. Just not enough in circulation to beat other console games.

You can only really definitively make that call one way or the other when stock is steady.

 

[Bruno MB]

UK definitively isn't jumping on Switch ship.

We only know so far that Splatoon 2 sold better than the original but had a lower debut than The Legend of Zelda: The Breath of the Wild and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, which is the expected scenario.

 

[dex3108]

Crash is still crashing charts.

 

[AllGamer]

‘Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy’ pips 'Splatoon 2' to the No.1 slot

Perfect

 

[Zedark]

Splatoon 2 59% higher debut than Splatoon 1: https://mobile.twitter.com/Chris_Dring/status/889405104092319745

Splatoon 2's week one is 59% higher than the first Splatoon

 

[Roufianos]

Perfect

Yea but at least Splatoon 2 doesn't ask him for money!

 

[Creamium]

Damn that's very impressive. Crash dominating

 

[Hasney]

Splatoon 2 59% higher debut than Splatoon 1: https://mobile.twitter.com/Chris_Dring/status/889405104092319745

Much better than I was expecting with the limited hardware stock and it being a sequel to a game on a console barely anyone owned.

Weird, I thought a cartoon Bandicoot was number 1. I must be mistaken.

It's a PS4 game, hardcore you know. Crash on Switch would be for babies.

Spoiler

It's sarcasm people

 

[dex3108]

But really you can't beat 3 games from popular franchise for the price of 40$.

 

[Pancakes R Us]

Good for Splat 2 but what a hit for the what seems to be supply constrained Crash Bandicoot.

Crash 100, Haters -44

 

[Hasney]

You'd be surprised the serious posts we get in the PAL threads very similar to that, so don''t be shocked if your sarcasm isn't read!

 

[Ex-Psych]

Man I'm so glad the support for Crash is strong. May it lead to better Crash games.

Also Splatoon 2 and other switch games picking up steam again is great as well.

 

[Acquiescence]

But really you can't beat 3 games from popular franchise for the price of 40$.

I'm more than happy to pay £45 for a single game as long as it doesn't ask me for more money.

 

[bombshell]

The cartoon looks are deceiving.

 

[Mory Dunz]

I thought we knew how splatoon. 1 opened. Anyone not on mobile got numbers handy?

How did I not see this before

Bruno has it in the new thread, Splatoon 2 did 28k approximately.
