The UK buys what the shop shove in their faces. So that's the standard COD/FIFA/GTA and anything PS i.e. Crash. Nintendo products are barely sold at retail at all. Xbox has usually equal floor space to PS but everybodies friend's dog has a PS4 so that's what they will get to be able to play FIFA together. It's so sad. UK gamers as a whole are just complete stupid.

Give up moaning about what's currently popular in the UK.

When Nintendo was doing well we couldn't move for Wii and DS displays in stores. Now that PS4 is dominating the market, it's pretty obvious that retailers will cater to the consumers demands. When the Switch starts to build a solid userbase, you can fully expect retailers to adapt to the change.

 

Gamers can see past this fickleness. Which is why physical games stores (along with the naff pricing structure) in the UK are on their knees. Game will be gone within a year or two, that's pretty much guarenteed and there's not much left after that. It's will be all online stores only.
