UK Video Game Charts - No Joy for Nintendo

Despite having a new console and the games to go with it Nintendo has not dented the Top 10 of the UK video games charts for the week ending December 9th. Instead, good old fashioned Blops II sits in the #1 as usual.

Chart-Track points out that Activision's reliable cash-horse is, "the 4th title to hold four consecutive weeks at the top of our All Formats Chart in 2012 along with both FIFA 12, FIFA 13 and Lego Batman 2 (which has 5 weeks)."

Also up top of the chars is Far Cry 3 (-8%) which holds the No2 ahead of EA's FIFA 13 (+18%) which stays at No3 despite a strong increase in sales.

Chart-Track explains that, "Retailer promotions continue to propel Just Dance 4 (+54%) up the chart from No6 to No4 ahead of another Ubisoft title Assassin's Creed III (+10%) at No5. Hitman Absolution (-3%) slips to No6 while Halo 4 (52,340 / +36%) climbs a spot to No7."
