Remember -- it SSBB did not sell as well there as it did elsewhere (and if you don't remember, just look up the entire dissertation on it by Bruce on Games).
In other words, fighting games do not appear to sell as well in the UK on the Wii as they do elsewhere.
This game is American-centric in its sensibilities. Its success or failure will be measured there. But I would not be surprised to see it down to $40 soon.

Fighting games sell fine, the Super Smash Bros series has never been big in Europe. Always been a majorly Jap/US thing.

Not to mention Brawl was released in June in Europe and March in NA.. I know that quite a few people that imported from US and had modded Wii or used the freeloader.
