Forums - Sales - UK Charts Week Ending 10 May 2014

It is and it will dominate the charts for a long time when the version for other consoles will release at retail. Well, except maybe some weeks after a new CoD or Fifa release...

If Minecraft 360 is already beasting, what will 360+PS3+PS4+Vita+One do lol.


They'll all be counted as separate SKU's for the purposes of the combined chart though, I think.  Because they've all got the silly "Xbox One Edition"; "PS4 Edition" etc. subtitles.

Software sales must be very weak right now if Titanfall is still number one and still decreasing in sales by significant margins. MK8 and Watch_Dogs can't come soon enough

man is minecraft a work of wonder. how that games sells like this is beyond me. and all this and there is still digital sales.

Aren't the digital sales the vast majority of sales, at that? I remember reading somewhere that it was something insane like 80%. The only explanation I can see for how Minecraft sells so well on consoles is that people really like having a physical copy of games and Minecraft is super cheap for the quality and content that it offers. I mean if you think about it, it sells for $20, that would be like if Nintendo sold Animal Crossing for $20.

Bundles are tracked.

Hardware for PS4 and ONE will be down this week by a fair bit I reckon.

Yet more proof that this continued momentum throughout the year that people talk of is nonsense.


Hahaha you are certainly an oracle I must say! Sales down during summer?? No way!

Well, there were those who said over and over again that PS4 demand (and shortages) would carry trhoughtout summer.

Minecraft is simply incredible. When the PS4/ Xbox One versions release at retail, I think it could be a long term system seller, providing the differences are big enough!



                            

dat Titanfall.

I think the PS3 retail Minecraft comes out next week. Wonder how well it sells.



Ground Zeroes is holding amazingly well. Good job, Snake!

It's the kids over here. As a person who works in a school, Minecraft is the topic that kids aged 4-11 (and more as well) are obsessed with. In one class of 30, 9 of the children had books on Minecraft as their reading book, and all the kids on their tables were trying to look too. 



what a silly weekly dig about PS4 sales it is

the important thing is that the PS4 is the best selling next gen console in the UK,who cares if demand goes down

the PS4 has taken over from the 360,good job sony taking that market share back in the UK,the second most important microsoft market
