What happened to Persona 5 in UK? It was 1 at release and since the second week not even in the top 40 anymore?

I think I never saw such a front-loaded release

And too bad to see the strategy titles (Halo Wars 2 and Cities: Skylines) doing so "bad" at least at retail. That genre doesn't get much love on consoles it seems.

I've never thought you're concerned with JRPG.

Anyway , Persona 5 is 42th place in AmazonUK right now.

And Switch is very poplar (#6) over here too.

BOTW over Horizon? That's a first.

It may have happenes once or twice before. At least that's what I remember.

That usually happens with JRPGs.

Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

I still play some JRPGs (but played them much more in the past) but yes, I don't care about Persona 5 or many other JRPGs nowadays to play them on my own.

But that has not much to do with me recognizing it. I'm jus surprised by it. I know these games tend to sell more to the "hardcore" fans as games like Horizon or Uncharted but it went still very fast out of the top 40.
