Impressive, to say the least. My guess is that Knack is being undertracked in the rest of the world and Mario overtracked slightly (except Japan, from where we get figures).

Either way, Knack is breaking new ground for non-Mario platformers!

Yeah, I'm sure it's much more likely that Knack is undertracked and Mario overtracked on a massive scale worldwide, rather than Chart-Track overtracking Knack and undertracking Mario in Britain, and that both are vastly more likely than the game simply not selling as well in Britain specifically because retailers in Britain have divested in Wii U far more than in any other country.

So sad. Super Mario 3D World is so amazing :( ....only got to play 1 world at a friends!

Knack was sooo meh..I played it at Eurogamer Expo. Maybe the full game is much better..but jeez. What a disappointent!

Anyway this is due to the PS4 userbase quite likely being almost double WiiU's now & having an active buying base.



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

this is out of hand, its obvious Knack will outsell SM3DW in UK.

Is this going to happen every week now? -_-


No it's not. Many predicted that it'll have better legs like all Mario games do (don't remember if you were one of them). I want Knack to sell more and still think that Mario will outsell it eventually in the UK. 


It was obvious in week 2 Knack would sell more. Its funny cuz this is a way of trying to put down nintendo again like always. Where are the SM3DW outsells Knack threads at? Also like how SM3DW opened with about a third of Lightning Returns but still manage to outsell it in 5 weeks. But god damn there isnt a thread on it every week (its outselling it every week for awhile now).

Its just funny maybe the first time, but god damn this same thread will happen every week for the next 2-3 months!!! 

Read your own post and you'll understand why it's something worth making a thread about. Hint: it's something completely unexpected. Just like when a Tales of game outsold a FF game (xilia first week sales> ff13-2(. Mario games are expcted to do well. And actually there've been several threads about Mario outselling Knack wordwide (which also includes Japan sales, when it shouldn't; but that's another stoty). So, I get that you're a Ninty fan and might not see it when it happens, but Ninty fans do make several threads (whether it is to put down sony or not is debatable; I will refrain from making assumptions). 

im not saying dont make a thread, but come on. Same thing every week for over a month now? Vita beats 3DS in japan for a week. Several threads are made. Thats fine cuz Vita never beats 3DS there. WiiU outsells Everything, a thread is fine but when its Fan vs Fan (ex nintendo vs sony or M$ vs Sony) threads going on every week for weeks its just annoying. Its Expected for Knack to outsell Mario and i promise you Knack will outsell  mario again for the next 4-8 weeks and we'll see another "Knack still outselling SM3DW"  thread on every Monday

Oh, I definitely agree with you on that. A thread every week about this is by all means unnecessary.
