Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream

We had to give our eyes a little rub and pull a double-take as we opened this week's UK charts data this morning. Is that... Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream in the top spot?

Yes, despite the series selling rather well on 3DS, there was a part of us that thought the gap until Living the Dream might have dampened enthusiasm a little, but no! The Switch life sim has immediately grabbed the gold in its debut week, even beating Capcom's multi-platform original, Pragmata (for which only 13% of sales came from Switch 2).
