It's probably banned in Germany (I can't confirm this, I am just guessing based on many violent games being banned there, and RE4 seems to have been distributed in small numbers as if retailers own rules stop them selling it) It might have not even reached some regions. or might just not be popular in them.
Having said that, if UK was 13k for second week it does seem exceptionally low for it to only be 7k everywhere else.... but it is still plausable given the retailers reluctance to put out 3rd party Wii games even with big names like CoD... which was supposedly really hard to find for it's first week. This is probably part of the reason Wii games ave such low opening weeks compared to lifetime sales.
