You should put the following in your OP:

‘Call of Duty: Black Ops II’ remains at No1 for a 5th consecutive week (+14%), equalling ‘Lego Batman 2’ in terms of number of weeks at the top of this chart in 2012.

Square-Enix’s ‘Hitman Absolution’ climbs 4 places to No2 (+91%) thanks to price promotion and EA’s ‘FIFA 13’ remains at No3 for a 6th consecutive week (+8%).

Ubisoft’s ‘Just Dance 4’ remains at No4, helped by a price-promoted Wii version (+10%) whilst Ubisoft’s ‘Far Cry 3’ drops 3 places to No5 (-25%). The trio of Ubisoft big-hitters are back-to-back this week, with ‘Assassin’s Creed III’ down 1 place to No6 (-6%). The rest of the Top 10 remains the same, with Microsoft’s ‘Halo 4’ at No7 (+2%), EA’s ‘Need for Speed: Most Wanted’ at No8 (+24%), Warner’s ‘Lego The Lord of the Rings’ at No9 (+21%) and THQ’s ‘WWE ‘13’ at No10 (+12%)

OMG, Wii U bombing hard!!!



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Only Wii U game at 39 is concerning...

Not quite sure what you expected. The Vita has about 5x the install base of the Wii U, and COD Vita has been heavily advertised. The test comes in the new year, for both systems.

just a little extra info from mcvuk

"Activision’s shooter claims its fifth successive Gfk Chart-Track All Formats Top 40 No.1 this week, and actually manages to grow sales 14 per cent week-on-week.

Retail discounting helps Hitman Absolution climb from sixth to second place, with sales jumping 91 per cent."

Not too happy with Wii U's performance. And bundles are counted as far as I know, so...anyone in for a mass suicide?



Proclus on 17 December 2012

Halo 4!



IIIIITHE1IIIII on 17 December 2012

Those Wii U numbers aren't too surprising given that god awful UK commercial.



People are probably ashamed to admit that they own a Wii U over there.

LOL, call of duty vita outselling a new 2d mario game? I think NOE is hitting a red panic button somewhere. But seriously we cannot judge Wii U sales until after its first christmas.
