top 5 wii = wow.

Goo that is a lot for DS and Wii haha.

It’s a return to No1 for Lucasarts’ ‘Lego Indiana Jones’ after a 4 week break, although the title has yet to drop out of the Top 3 since launch 7 weeks ago.

THQ’s ‘Wall-E’ benefits from the cinematic release, climbing 14 places to No2, nestling just 46 sales behind the No1. Nintendo’s ‘Wii Fit’ drops from No1 to No3, followed by a tranche of Nintendo Wii titles – ‘Wii Play’ is up 3 places to No4, ‘Super Smash Bros: Brawl’ is down 2 places to No5 and ‘Mario Kart Wii’ climbs 6 places to No6. Even the next title down is still Nintendo orientated, as Sega climb 3 places to No7 thanks to DS/Wii ‘Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games’. Sega’s other Olympic tie-in, next-gen ‘Beijing 2008’ drops out of the Top 10, down 6 places to No14. Activision’s ‘Guitar Hero: On Tour’ makes a debut appearance on DS, only 57 units off a Top 10 placing. Ubisoft’s Wii mini-game party title ‘Sports Party’ is this week’s highest climber – up 16 places to No13.

Yay, Babyz is back on the board!

Individual chart platform split:

Wii: 15
DS: 15
PS3: 5
360: 4
PSP:1

Did 360 ever had only 4 titles in top 40? Also no title for X360 in top 10 (Battlefield is at 11th).
PS3 not much better with MGS4 at 10th and no other title in top 20.

However this was somewhat expected and Wii/DS should increase even further next week. In week 31 Soul Calibur IV should help HD consoles a little.

Wii and ds dominating

Those UK charts are actually scarily one-sided. 75% of games on Nintendo systems.

Ireland is up:

NO GTA 4  for PS3 in the Top 40 !!!

@Fabius: Yeah but it's not far from 40th, on value chart it has quite respectable 20th position (compared to 15th position for 360 version).
