It's charting because you can get it for about £5-£7.

still hope they make a sequel 



Only 2 3DS titles remaining, Nintendo is leaking water in the UK
If I'm not mistaken, Master System outsold the NES in the UK, and the Genesis/Megadrive outsold the SNES. So I don't give much for English tastes when it comes to computer and video games :P No just kidding, but clearly much of Nintendos low performance in this chart has to do with traditions and game culture that goes way back. N64 was clearly outsold by PS, GC was miles away from both PS2 and Xbox, and even the almighty Wii was struggling in the UK. Just as the Xbox brand is virtually non existent in Japan, so is the Nintendo brand virtually invisible in the UK from time to time . Wierd things do happen in this industry, and in some cases they are unexplainable, as Nintendo's traditionally low performance in the UK is.
It comes at a huge loss for UK consumer's though, who generally has missed out on some of the best software ever produced. Strange things do happen... ;)
uk gamers are so boring.
Fifa 2014 really? Do these soccer games really warrant a new purchase every year with the minimal upgrades.
UK is tired of Nintendo it seems. And looks at those glorious Knack sales :D
PS4 is doing very great as well. Good times ahead.

Teams actually get promoted and relegated into different leagues over here so it's nowhere near as static as US sports. For example, a team can be in the premier league with fantastic players in 2012, and by 2014, be 2 tiers down with a massively reduced budget and a completely different squad. It means that older iterations are completely obsolete as far as being realistic within a year or two.
Also helps that EA switch off online servers pretty quickly meaning if you aren't on the latest or next to most recent game, you don't have online play, even if there was still a community there for it.
As for minimal upgrades, there were actually some very substantial changes from the first 360 to the last 360 FIFAs. Even the Vita one is based on 2011 and plays completely different to either FIFA 13 or FIFA 14 on the main consoles.
You've also got the PS4/XBONE upgrade versions this year. Getting a PS4 was the reason I went for FIFA 14. I won't buy one now until FIFA 16 or FIFA 17 most likely. But you do get a lot of rotations and people buying PS4/XBONE later next yer will most likely grab FIFA 15 for that even if they already had FIFA 14 this year on PS3/360.
And then we look at console sales and 3ds is always near the top? I wonder why, because 3ds games are volatile in most charts (save Japan's).
