But Nintendo still dominates the premier league
Well, for a while it was actually a bit different. The past month has seenMonster Hunter Rise,Spider-Man Miles Morales,Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury, and even Supergiant’s excellentHadesall hit the number one spot. But normal order has been restored, and Electronic Arts’FIFAhas returned to the top of the UK Charts.
The soccer sim managed to successfully push past Square Enix’sOutridersto regain the physical sales throne, with the brand new RPG shooter debuting outside of the Top Five at number six. It should be noted thatOutridersis also available as part of Xbox’s paid gaming service, Xbox Game Pass, which will have cut into the title’s physical launch numbers.
Elsewhere in the Top Ten, it’s still The Nintendo Show, with appearances fromAnimal Crossing: New Horizons– sitting at #2 a full year after release – as well as Switch mainstaysRing Fit Adventure,Minecraft, andMario Kart 8 Deluxe.Super Mario 3D All-Starsenjoyed afinal week sales spike,before being removed from shelves for seemingly no reason other than… to encourage a final week sales spike.
