Official UK All Format Chart: Week 32

12 August, 2008 4 March, 2022

426

It’s chart time again folks and Wii Fit is top of the pile. Soul Calibur showed a lot of heart last week but is beaten into the number two position by a game clearly posessing a lot more stamina. Mario Kart Wii maintains speed at number three while THQ’s summer party game Big Beach Sports is at number 4. The only reason I can think of for that games good showing is the fact that it’s being advertised like crazy either side of WWE programming. Kids like wrestling, kids see an advert for Big Beach Sports, kids pester their parents for it because it looks ‘cool’ or ‘wicked awsome’ or ‘dope’ or whatever slang kids use nowerdays.
Mario & Sonic are still 8th on the chart but with the Olympics having kicked off now I believe we’ll see that rise. The start of the Olympics has fared a bit better for the official Bejing 2008 game. It’s up to 13 which is a lot better than the 20 it was at the week before… but still not a patch on the plumber and the hedgehog.
The full chart is as follows!

Is tsszNews established in the UK?

No, we’re established in North America, though Paul Street is from the UK. Tristan and I both live in America.

Thank you for the clarification.

I’d post a US chart too but thought to get a UK one sorted first because I live there. It took a lot of correspondence with the ELSPA to get permission to use the chart but now they send it straight to my inbox. Would anyone care to see a US chart?
