We love charts here at Player Attack, and one of the highlights of our week is receiving the latest details from UKIE, who send us the 40 best-selling titles in Britain, as announced by the The Association for UK Interactive Entertainment.
Firstly this week: The launch of the Wii U (nearly 6 years to the day since the launch of the Wii). From numbers given to us from the UK, we can confirm that just 10% of Week 1 Wii U buyers chose to pick up the 8GB Basic (White) Pack, with 60% picking up the Premium (Black) version (which also came with a copy of Nintendo Land), and a further 30% snatching up a ZombiU pack that contained a 32GB console as well as a copy of the game.
And despite all the fuss over the new console launch, we’re guessing the best-seller would have remained on top even if it didn’t have a Wii U version. Far Cry 3 makes an admirable effort at #2, scoring the 9th biggest launch of 2012, while FIFA 13 remains steady at #3, adding a ninth format to its ever-growing list.
