Nintendo Switch games dominate hits on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in fresh UK charts

An extended version of the six-year-old Wii U game was on top of the next UK retail sales chart. This is reported by the portal GamesIndustry.biz with reference to tracker data Gfk.

Compared to the previous week, boxed sales Mario Kart 8: Deluxe jumped immediately by 70%, which allowed the long-lived charts to triumphantly take off from the seventh immediately to the first position. Following is an innovative game Ring fit adventure – Another Switch exclusive for the second week in a row occupies high positions.

In the reporting week, the fresh British chart was not marked by new releases. Debuted before this Switch-compilation 51 Worldwide Games flew from sixth to ninth line, but sales fell by only 18%.

In general, the past week passed under the sign of Switch, since sales growth was recorded for many games of the hybrid console, among which were Minecraft (# 7), Luigi’s Mansion 3 (# 10), New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe (# 13), Pokémon Sword (# 15), The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (# 20), Pokémon Shield (# 43), Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2023 (# 23), Super Mario Odyssey (# 26), Super Smash Bros Ultimate (# 27), The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening (# 84), Super Mario Maker ( # 48) and Super Mario Party (# 37). A total of 15 published by Nintendo Switch games were included in the TOP-40.

A noticeable surge occurred in connection with the resumption of Switch’s supply volumes, from which some British retail outlets independently collected bundles with games in order to make more money amid a shortage – the console constantly disappears from the shelves. Some stores, for example, do not sell a hybrid set-top box separately, but require customers to purchase it along with exclusive projects. However, this practice is not applied everywhere.

Forza Horizon 4 (# 8) is back in the top ten. Helped her with this special bundle with the Xbox One X console, which they offer at a reduced price.

  1. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
