UK software sales for the week ending October 21, 2023
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
The latest UK software sales chart for the week ending October 21, 2023 is now available.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder debuts at #2. With sales that are slightly higher than New Super Mario Bros. Wii, it’s the biggest 2D Mario game launch in UK history. For the franchise overall, only Super Mario Odyssey and Super Mario 3D All-Stars did better, but only by a little. One interesting tidbit is that Super Mario Bros. Wonder didn’t come close to Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom as the former’s launch sales are 62 percent lower, but it’s worth pointing out that Mario games are long-term sellers.
