Nintendo chose to release quite a large supply of Wii stock last week, meaning that those eager to get their hands on the innovative new system would finally get their wish, thus impacting greatly on the UK charts. However, the PlayStation 2 has had several big new games released lately, Spider-man 3 has launched across many formats and Nintendo’s own DS is still running rampant. So how well did the Wii do in the face of all this competition? That is what we are about to find out…
Web slinging has never been so much fun…
Over on the All Prices Top 40, a large influx of new Wii hardware helps budget game Wii Play climb two places to its highest ever ranking of No.2 (up 30% in sales!) and because of a lot of activity this week, Brain Training falls six to No.15. There seems to be no stopping Cooking Mama, though, as it cooks up a storm, leaping from No.35 to No.23 and obviously bodes well for the imminent release of Cook Off, the Wii version. Finally, 42 All-Time Classics clings on, down five to No.30.
