Second Week For Snake

14/Sep/2015

‘Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain’ holds on to No1 for a second week, albeit with a whopping decline of -78% over week 1.

The average decline week 2 over week 1 for the Top 10 biggest launch titles so far this year is -67% (included in that list are MGSV and Mad Max from last week). The big new entry within the Top 40 is Nintendo’s Wii U ‘Super Mario Maker’ debuting strongly at No2 and selling enough to become the 4th best week 1 sell-through for a Wii U title (the top 3 are Mario Kart 8 , Super Smash Bros. and Nintendo Land). Warner’s ‘Mad Max’ debuted at No2 last week and drops just 1 place to No3 (-66%). Right behind and actually climbing one place to No4 is a third chart week for ‘Disney Infinity 3.0’ (-42%). Also showing third weeks on chart are Sony’s ‘Until Dawn’ (-51%) which is down 1 place to No5 and Microsoft’s ‘Gears of War: Ultimate Edition’ (-58%), down 3 places to No6. The only other new entry within the Top 40 is Sony’s PS4 ‘Tearaway Unfolded’ coming in at No33.

Tearaway flopped horrendously, and it's not even full price.

MGS very front-loaded, it seems not even good reviews can pull in non-fans of the series.

Until Dawn holding well, a sleeper hit of this late summer, with good word of mouth might do very well when it's all said and done.

Tearaway had no promo.... LBP3 sold almost as much on a regular week vs twy's launch week.... Also yes until dawn is probably being aided by the streaming on psn 

PS4 will save Tearaway, right?

Such a shame the game has gotten completely ignored twice now. It deserves a hell of a lot more.

Though it does make me slightly bemused that Sony's "PS4-or-nothing" approach wasn't applicable here. Hey, remember Vita chaps?

Nice deboo for Mario Maker. That counts bundles right?

It had a demo and adverts, which is 2x more stuff than they gave the Vita version.

It's gonna be bundle or nothing for this game, but to be honest it's probably best if they just abandon the IP at this point.  Lovely game, but a commercial disaster (twice).

Well I mean they launched the game a week after mgs ad a week before destiny.....

I see it coming to PS+ sooner than anticipated, January or February 2016.

Another platformer game ignored on PS platforms? The shocker. Good hold of MGS and Until Dawn, never expected the later to hold this long on the top 5, considering it's a game you can watch other people playing and lose interest, so it surprised me for the best. TLOU also beasting after all this time (may be a bundle or w/ver but it's still good). SMM also debuting high for a wiiU game in the UK.

Good debut for Mario Maker. I would have liked a top spot debut
