Chart-Track's news (on the All-Format chart) :
Nintendo has shown impressive pace with a healthy 7 consecutive weeks at No1 with ‘Wii Fit’ (-26%) which now makes 16 weeks at the top since launch – only 2 more No1’s to equal the all time record holder (‘Who Wants To Be A Millionaire’ / Eidos).
EA’s ‘FIFA 09’ (-13%) moves up the table to No2, with Activision Blizzard’s ‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’ (-42%) at No3 and ‘Call of Duty: World at War’ (-8%) climbing up to No4. Nintendo’s ‘Mario Kart Wii’ stays at No5 (-29%) and Capcom’s ‘Resident Evil 5’ is also a non-mover at No6 (-17%). Sega climb another 2 places to No7 with ‘Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games’ (-14%), followed by Nintendo’s ‘Professor Layton and the Curious Village’ (-25%) at No8 and ‘Wii Play’ (-49%) at No9. The only New Entry to make the Top 40 this week is Eidos’ ‘Battlestations: Pacific’ on PC and Xbox 360 which sails in at No10.

It seems "Battlestations: Pacific" is actually a big release. Never heard of it - or I would have put it in the title. Right now, I'm completely out of touch with the Video-Game industry. So, I have a question : what are the big names for next week ? Punch-out and Bionic Commando ? Other games ?
