Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Takes Top Spot to Give Nintendo a First UK Number 1 Since 2011

Sure it's a quiet week, but if NOA PR is anything to go by, it's also the fastest selling in the franchise. Sounds like a bona fide hit to me.

It's not hard to see why, as switch appears to have snagged some lapsed Nintendo gamers who have fond memories of MK (as 'noob' comments above show).

For my part, I never picked it up for my wii u but got this on Saturday and am really enjoying it so far. The baby mario track in particular is an absolute blast online.

Loving the release schedule at the moment. Steady feed of quality indies leading up to MK.

Last week - Snake-Pass
This week - Graceful Explosion Machines
Next week - Mr. Shifty
Week after - Wonder Boy

Then MK hits

Enjoyed it so far. Only slight dud of the 7 games I've picked up so far has been Bomberman, but going to reassess that one post-patch.

To be honest, I already have a backlog - need to finish up Shovel Knight and I am Setsuna so I can get to Blaster Master Zero, and after that staring at some really intriguing eshop releases out already or soon that I want to play before Mario Kart.

So for me, there really isn't a thin library at this point. This might just reflect my tastes for old school platformers and RPGs. I also really don't need a constant stream of big retail releases to keep me happy.
