UK Charts: Surprise! It's Another Sleepy Week For Nintendo

LEGO City Undercover clinging on to the top 40

Not much of a movement overall, these are almost all old (as in at least a couple of months) titles. HL is on a massive sale so it's top 1

I wanna see the next week when Oblivion gets counted in.

I like that Astro Bot is still selling well (and in the top 10 more than 6 months later). Gives Sony an incentive to work on similar projects — and Nintendo an extra push to outdo themselves with the next Mario.

As expected, better weeks ahead starting from June the 5th onwards! Just waiting on astrobot to reduce in price, but looks like I will be waiting a while.

I actually heard E33 was really good, like, GOTY good.

Good to see Clair Obscura doing reasonably well!

How concerned do I need to be about TooKyo games though...

I miss Bluey back on Top 40.

If anyone in UK wants the Switch 2 Mario Kart bundle most Currys apparently still have stock (in-store only, not available online!) as well as the standalone Switch 2. Pre-ordered my Mario Kart bundle at my local store yesterday! Not sure if people are aware given how all the online pre-orders seem to go in minutes.

@Anti-Matter I don't, looks like bluey has gone MIA I'm afraid?!

Isn’t that the lowest MK8 Deluxe has charted since the release date (nearly 8 years ago)?

I'm excited to see major shake-ups come June

It's nuts; I keep a cursory eye on what's releasing on other platforms and had never heard of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 until the day it dropped. Despite it reading like a game I'd really enjoy. I'm happy a RPG of its ilk is doing so well, especially in a market like the UK.

Hogwarts and FC have great Switch sales numbers. With NS2 becoming more „mainstream gaming“ than the previous systems, I see that third -party games will become more important for Nintendo, both from a strategic and financial perspective.

I was under the impression that Minecraft in the Top10, is the Switch version? EA Sports FC, or whatever the heck ya call it, and the mighty Hogwarts selling best on Switch is great to see

The switch 2 upgrade situation is very confusing. All future switch game purchases are on hold until further clarification.

I am about 15 hours in for Expedition 33, and it's easily one of the best RPGS I've ever played in my life. If it were to ever come out for the switch 2, I would double dip to support these amazing devs.

This game is currently my GOTY... Metroid Prime 4 may still have a chance, but it would need to completely blow me away as Clair Obscur did.

Animal crossing still ranks highly every single week, yet Nintendo didn’t want a new version for the switch 2 launch?!

@Papery0shi plenty of other candidates will emerge for goty contenders including the new mario kart ghost of yotei and a few others..

@johnedwin Yup! honestly a great year so far for gaming

I'm looking forward to
Metroid Prime 4
Mario Kart World
Donkey Kong Bananza
Ghost of Yotei

and more games that I probably forgot to mention.

Still, I don't think any of the one's I listed would blow me away, but I'm hoping Metroid Prime 4 does.

@artsbyff Any Bluey fanatic would know Bluey is of course a GIRL.

I guarantee when Switch 2 launches the top 10 will be 90% Nintendo games

@Medic_alert not all switch games are going to be backwards compatible. The testing was only 30 minutes, so could break later on. The upgrades range from free, $10, $ 20 and sorry you need to repurchase the whole game (thanks sega). Only a handful of games have been announced and most of those we are not sure of the upgrade details.

how is F1 24 in the top 40 when F1 25 comes out for a CHEAPER PRICE in a month
