Nearly a year and a half after the launch of Microsoft's motion-sensing peripheral, 5/10 Kinect Star Wars is the first Kinect-exclusive title to hit the top spot.
12 per cent of people buying Kinect Star Wars bought the game in a bundle with the new R2D2-flavoured console, worth £350.
Devil May Cry HD Collection arrived in 18th place, while Pixar adventure Kinect Rush turned up in 32nd.
Sega's 8/10 3DS rhythm game Rhythm Thief and the Emporer's Treasure is nowhere to be seen. It was Eurogamer's Game of the Week last week.
Top spot vs 32nd, and a good original game doesn't even chart at all.
