Wow those PSP numbers are abysmal, whichever way you spin it.

And wow honestly did not expect EA to do THAT well, must be the Fifas and a mixture of other sport/racing games!

Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

Kind of crazy that PS3 beat Wii in terms of both SW revenue and actual units. Particularly impressive when you consider that this includes semi-bundled games as well, or at least I would assume so since WSR shows up on the weekly UK charts.

Charttrack doesn't include bundle sales at the manufacturer level afaik. Otherwise Wii Sports would be dominating weekly, those WSR sales are (in all likelihood) unbundled.

I'm pretty sure I remember one of the weekly blurbs mentioning that Wii Fit plus got a boost because of the new bundle.

:edit: Actually it was mentioning WSR getting a boost because of a retailer promotion on the bundle.

Activision Blizzard’s ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops’ holds on to the top spot this week despite an 85% drop in sales, forcing Ubisoft to settle for a No2 debut with ‘Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood’.

After its blockbuster launch, only 63,000 sales now separates Black Ops from ‘Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood’, making it the biggest ever Assassin’s Creed launch with 55% of sales on Xbox 360 and 45% on PS3. ‘Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit’ is the only other Top 10 new entry this week, new at No3. EA’s other new entry, ‘Harry Potter: The Deathly Hallows – Part 1’ can only summon up a debut of No20. However, EA’s ‘FIFA 11’ is still a star player despite making way for the new releases, down 2 places to No4. Ubisoft’s ‘Just Dance 2’ is also looking healthy despite falling 2 places to No5. The rest of the Top 10 is dominated by Nintendo thanks to a strong performance from ‘Wii Party’ up from No12 to No6 and ‘Wii Sports Resort’, which returns to the Top 10 at No7, aided by a retailer promotion on the Wii hardware bundle. ‘Professor Layton and the Lost Future’ is down 2 places to No8, ahead of ‘Kinect Sports’ at No9. With ‘New Super Mario Bros. Wii’ down 2 places to No10, Nintendo now have 4 games in the Top 10

Yeah, they'll count retailer bundles but not manufacturer bundles. NPD does the same thing.

The Japanese trackers count them all though. So does VGC.
