‘Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag’ and ‘Battlefield 4’ go head to head in a fiercely contested chart that sees Ubisoft’s title take the No1 spot.

Both titles appear to be affected by the imminent appearance of both Xbox One and PS4 with neither title matching the sales of its predecessor. Both Assassin’s Creed III and Battlefield 3 were the highest week 1 sellers in their respective series and achieved No1 in their first week of release. Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag benefits from its Event Title status having been available from Tuesday this week.

‘FIFA 14’ (+5%) remains at No3 and sees a boost in sales thanks to hardware bundling. ‘Grand Theft Auto V’ (-13%) is down two places to No4 but is ahead of last week’s chart topper ‘Batman: Arkham Origins’ (-56%) which slips to No5. Sega land at No6 as ‘Football Manager 2014’ arrives for PC. The title sees strong sales although it’s down 7% on ‘Football Manager 2013’ which debuted at No4. Also new this week WWE 2K14 is at No7 and is the first in the popular series to fall under Take 2’s 2K Sports label following its acquisition from previous publisher THQ. ‘Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition’ (+53%) is down a place at No8 this week despite being the second title to benefit from retailer bundling. Activision’s ‘Skylanders Swap Force’ (-8%) slides to No9 in its 3rd week while Pokémon Y (-20%) nudges out Pokémon X (-22%) at No10.

Further down the chart Activision Blizzards’ ‘Angry Birds Starwars’ arrives on consoles and handhelds at No30, joining the Focus/Rovio PC title (released in Week 46 2012) and includes a host of new levels and features.

Jesus, Pokemon is seriously underperforming in the UK.

...It had a 20-22% drop compared to last week. It dropped due to 8 big new entries in charts, not because it collapsed. 20% in its fourth week is a great hold.

[Starwolf_UK]

Did the Argos deal end or did Lord of the Rings just sell out (Moshi Monsters is a much higher position when sales should be equal given they are both promo bundle)?

It was interesting to see Pokemon Y decline slower than X and overtake it.

I totally didn't notice the lead SKUs of the toy DLC games (Slyander, Disney), will have to check out the platform split when Gurdian posts them.

Oh, durr. I was going by the Guardian splits (as I'm keeping an eye on it) but I didn't notice they'd missed a week. They're pretty late this week too, I wonder if we'll get 'em.

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

Pokemon does seem to be much lower than it should be.

 

[Mpl90]

While waiting for Guardian's shares

FIFA 14 - 53.088 (+5%)
Grand Theft Auto V - 47.589 (-13%)
Batman: Arkham Origins - 44.000 (-56%)

 

[Mpl90]

Pokemon does seem to be much lower than it should be.

Again. Compared to last week, Y lost 20%, while X lost 22%. It's not due to sales falling off a cliff. They're quite steady, actually. It's due to new releases with lots of SKUs taking the charts.

 

[SmokyDave]

Pokemon does seem to be much lower than it should be.

They should've released a 2DS version.

 

[Zalman]

Yeah, Pokémon is quite low, but keep in mind 8 of those are brand new releases.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Pokemon slaying as per, the holiday season will be great! And it will chart for months to come, totally deserved, it's an awesome game.

Both versions are equally popular, I think it's a first for the Pokemon series.

Looking at 3DS UK eShop, that seems the case: as of yesterday, the difference of ratings between the two SKUs was in the order of ten. And both SKUs have almost 1.000 ratings.

Wii U hoping for that Argos bundle

Pokemon is holding steady, no reason to be concerned guys

Pokemon is doing fine historically speaking.

Do we know how much Battlefield 3 and Assassin's Creed 3 sold at their debut? I'm going to search for them in the older threads.

 

[Ikon]

Nice to see GTAV (PS3) is still #1 in all four Scandinavian countries. I look forward to seeing how long it will stay there. Also FIFA 14 (PS3) is going strong up here as expected.

Gran Turismo 5 still charting after three years.

POWAH.

I dunno, I certainly didn't expect it to drop below Minecraft this soon though, I'll tell you that. Even if you took out the new releases it's position seems off from what youd normally expect for such a high profile release, and I doubt it will hold as well as Minecraft did, or TLOU for that matter.

 

[SmokyDave]

Splits are up.

Batman 3DS is nowhere to be seen. Perhaps it's not bundled in with the console versions like the Vita SKU was.

Aside from the fact that Minecraft had a bundle that generated a 53% increase...but you seriously expect a Pokémon main game to have less legs than The Last of Us? ...
...Pokémon? Really?

Yeah I would think it would stay above Batman/Minecraft. Even taking out this weeks new releases it would be number 8/9. I guess I am over estimating the series in the UK.

Wait, what? I could've sworn I saw it on shelves last week (when I picked up Splinter Cell 3D for £4.99. Lord knows why). What caused the delay?

The new releases will come and go. Pokemon will stay.

It'll need to go a long way to beat GT5. That'll still be charting after GT6 releases. Crazy legs.

Splits are up.

Batman 3DS is nowhere to be seen. Perhaps it's not bundled in with the console versions like the Vita SKU was.

It's not out yet officially. Edit: too late.
Someone said they saw it on shelves last week too.

Is it me or do the PS3 versions of the new games kinda underperform?

Well in the UK the 360 userbase is a few million (3?) ahead so the splits mainly show that. Some games that are more multi focused seem to SKU higher on 360 though.

I seriously would have expected much more of a bump for 3DS software after the 2DS came out.

Wii U and Vita free falling out of the charts completely as well

Wait, what? I could've sworn I saw it on shelves last week (when I picked up Splinter Cell 3D for £4.99. Lord knows why). What caused the delay?

It's been on shelves where I live since last week, same time the Vita one came out.

Christ knows what's going on there.

ps. you pissed away a perfectly good fiver there, bro

Yeah, thats a lot of new releases of BIG stuff pushing Pokemon down, no concerns.

Other than Luigi's Mansion popping up though, no other 3DS titles alongside the supposed 2DS explosion. Thing could end up as a Pokemon player and little else to the new adopters.

Wii Party U disappearance adds fuel to the "that audience is GONE, Nintenbros" fire.

Jesus, Pokemon is seriously underperforming in the UK.

8 new releases, 8 ranks down.

I think there are a lot of PS3 -> PS4 buyers waiting for next gen versions of the games. More than 360 -> Bone for sure. I think that will be borne out in the next gen sales figures which will have PS4 > Bone for the cross gen games.

And it's almost like Nintendo have given up trying to market it. I must admit while I don't watch a lot of TV, I do seem to watch the programs that are family friendly to Nintendo and where I normally see stuff like Just Dance, Skylanders, Disney Infinity get advertised all the time. Recently it's been a lot of 2/3DS and PS marketing and zero Wii U bar the Windwaker a few weeks back. Normally you see stuff back in the Wii days where Wii Party, Wii Fit and Mario was constantly getting promoted. But Nintendo don't seem to have started the big push yet... which is a little concerning. Maybe they are waiting for Mario 3D? Or I've simply just missed all the ads

You are really, really invested in " bad"3DS numbers, arent you

Wii Party ads are the first WiiU ads I'm seeing this year. And quite frequently.

Batman is an interesting case to watch since it goes to that concept that Vita while underperforming at least provides third partys some sales on a portable while 3DS is just a Nintendo First Party show until the end of time.

Its also pretty weird whatever the fuck is going on with it on shop floors but not registering sales because its not "released" yet.

Also winky smiles are the absolute best I really like them they're so cool.

Either Battlefield is really underperforming or AC is doing really well.
Most of us here are waiting for next gen versions, no?

I was under the impression that BF3 had reached the mainstream. With sales like this in beginning to doubt that.
