Pyro as Bill on 31 December 2018

Just Dance (Wii) has failed to make the top 100 in the UK charts for the first time since it released.

Just Dance (NS) seems to be making up for it with 2 titles in the top 100. 

Just Dance performing as it has along with Hyrule Warriors, Smash, DK and Captn Toad makes it feel like 2014 all over again.



Nov 2016 - NES outsells PS1 (JP)

Don't Play Stationary 4 ever. Switch!

That is quite surprising. We already knew that Sony's dispute with Amazon makes the performance of PS4 and PS4 games pretty weak on the Amazon rankings but it seems like Microsoft may be underrepresented on Amazon as well?

As of October, this is the top 10 best-selling games in 2018 according to NPD:

  1. Call of Duty: Black Ops IIII (PS4, XB1)
  2. Red Dead Redemption II (PS4, XB1)
  3. Far Cry 5 (PS4, XB1, PC)
  4. Marvel's Spider-Man (PS4)
  5. NBA 2K19 (PS4, XB1, Switch, PC)
  6. God of War (PS4)
  7. Monster Hunter: World (PS4, XB1, PC)
  8. Madden NFL 19 (PS4, XB1)
  9. Grand Theft Auto V (PS4, XB1, PC)
  10. Call of Duty: WWII (PS4, XB1)

In the US, yes. Link.

With Pokémon Let's Go and especially Smash selling like hotcakes, this will of course change but it's still surprising that both the PS4 and XB1 may be underrepresented on the Amazon rankings.
