The hope is that, in two weeks, we'll be looking at a UK top 40 games chart that has a decent number of Nintendo Switch releases near the top end. Time will tell on that, but for now we're limited to a small number of 3DS titles carrying the fight.
Dragon Ball Fusions finally arrived in Europe and, unfortunately, has been restricted to a modest debut result in the UK. It made its entry down in 36th place in the all-formats chart, which means it wasn't a particularly successful launch; it's arguably a niche release, but that outcome is a little underwhelming nonetheless.
Pokémon Sun is still the top-selling 3DS title in 18th place (all-format) and is now comfortably out-performing Pokémon Moon, which is down to 30th place. Super Mario Maker is in 32nd when counting both versions together, with the latest version on 3DS holding the exact same spot in the single-format chart. Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World has likely had its last week in the list, dropping 14 places down to 40th in the all-format chart.
Not much to shout about from Nintendo UK's perspective, though Pokémon Sun and Moon continue to shift decent numbers.

not buying it until we get proper swords
@kamikazilucas Agreed. I'd have bought it at launch if it wasn't needlessly censored.
Maybe that's because it hasn't been shown off at all here in the UK. Honestly, if I didn't keep checking back here, I probably wouldn't have even known the game existed. Despite it being released in japan and america for more than a few months.
On another note; I'm loving the game! I already finished the main story and I love how creative it's been! It even incorporated elements from Xenoverse which is also a nice touch. The character creator oddly seemed much more fleshed out than the Xenoverse one, even if just a tad. And the fusion mechanic opens up a wealth of possible combinations. You don't have to use it if you don't want to - getting through the game without is just fine, but it makes things a heck of a lot easier and more fun if you do.
If you're a DBZ fan and interested in RPG's, I'd 100% recommend picking this up! And if you're not a fan of RPG's, I'd still recommend taking a look at some gameplay videos at least. The game is that good and I really wish it had come to the Nintendo Switch instead. 3DS was the next best thing though.
Uh, Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World isn't at the top, you foul, 'u'-adding, tea-drinking, Poochy-hating, Sony-loving, colonizing, soulless monsters.
i'm enjoying it even with the lack of swords but i can see why it's a title that only really appeals to hardcore Dragon Ball fans
@FullbringIchigo Not really, it's also appealing to people that search for a fun and unique rpg experience. It's definitely way more appealing to Dragon Ball fans, specially since you'll miss many game references if you are not familiar with it, but I know people that enjoy it simply because it's a fun game.

I cant actually find dbz fusions in any store here in Australia. Putting it on shelves would probably help sales. .
I love this game! It's been a long, long time since I've experienced a game where I just can't put it down and end up doing nothing but playing it for entire days. DB Fusions is that kind of game!
I'm loving it so far. It's really fun and the battles are addicting.
