UK Leaderboards: PS5 and sports titles dominate the top 10 for a quiet week for Nintendo
Easter weekend is over and that means the UK boxed charts have begun. It’s been another quiet week for Nintendo, with two of Big N’s big titles still making the top 10. And it’s another case of the usual suspects.
Luxury Mario Kart 8 And Super Mario Odyssey ranked fourth and tenth respectively, with Mario Kart up one place and Odyssey dropping to second. We’ve seen Super Mario Odyssey sales skyrocket thanks to Movie Super Mario Bros.and we wonder if this series will continue.
However, the rest of the rankings are dominated by PS5 and sports titles. This week, fifa 23 topped the list, with 46% of revenue coming from the PS5 version and 26% for the Switch version. Number one week ago, Evil 4currently ranked second, but continues to sell well.
The Last of Us Part II saw a jump in revenue, going from 30th last week to 5th this week — we wonder if more people finished Season I after HBO’s acclaim Our Last premiere, and currently moving on to the sequel? The only new release in the top 10 is Visit EA Sports PGAlaunched on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on April 7.
However, Nintendo has plenty of games in the UK top 40, with Minecraft just fell out of the top 10, and Pokémon Scarlet & Violet remains (at 21st and 16th place respectively). Metroid Prime Remastered also made the top 40, although it dropped to 31st.
Here is this week’s full top 10:
