Chart Track said:
21/May/2007
The release this week of the PS3 version of ‘Spider-Man 3’ ensures that Activision’s film tie-in continues to hang on to No1 in the All Formats Chart for a third week.

‘Spider-Man 2’ managed 5 weeks at the top of the All Formats Chart when it was released 3 years ago. ‘Spider-Man 3’ is the first All Formats No1 for Activision since another film tie-in, ‘Madagascar’ in August 2005. ‘Spider-Man 3’ now tops both the PS2 and PS3 Charts with the PS3 version accounting for 19% and the PS2 version 49% of all ‘Spider-Man 3’ sales this week. ‘Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars’ is a non-mover from EA at No2, while Konami’s budget-priced ‘Pro Evolution Soccer 6’ shifts up one place to No3. ‘Cooking Mama’ from 505 Games, now on both DS and Wii, is starting to get a taste for Chart success, up one place to No5. The All Formats Top 10 is well represented with games on Nintendo formats (Wii, DS) with a total of 7 games, compared to 4 for both Sony (PS3, PS2, PSP) and Microsoft (Xbox 360).

It is an above par week for ‘Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07’ which benefits from strong Wii sales, up from No10 to No6, while EA’s ‘FIFA 07’ moves the other way, down from No5 to No7. With the date for Halo 3 now confirmed as 26th September, ‘Crackdown 3’, which contains a free Halo 3 Beta, re-enters the All Formats Top 10, up from No19 to No8. The All Formats Top 10 is rounded off with 2 DS exclusive games – ‘Dr Kawashima’s Brain Training’ which continues to jump in and out of the Top 10, up from No16 to No9 and ‘Final Fantasy III’ down 3 places to No10.

As you can see - a week of few new releases really benefits some older titles (Crackdown) some rising stars (Cooking Mama!!) and lots of summer special budget reissues.

Next Week!!
Play.com Releases
GAME releases (updates on Thur)

More titles out this week, incuding the first big Wii game since Wario.

Major Titles

Every Format Except Ngage Pirates of the Carribean
Wii Mario Strikers: Charged Football
PSP Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops
DS Custom Robo: Arena (& possibly Final Fantasy: Chocobo Tales)
X360 Pro Evo 6 Budget

And the largest shipment of Wiis to enter the UK since Christmas ready for their landmark online title...

Will the Wii get it's first UK number 1? Looks unlikely Vs Spiderman 3 and Pirates AND budget ProEvo, but stranger things have happened.

Thats what I thought, and Europe isn't really that big on Halo. I thought Crackdown might see a rise during the Beta phase though.

I was expecting a rise of maybe two to three notches. Not eleven. Very surprised.

I wasn't expecting much of a rise in Europe bigger than the yo-yoing it's been doing. I was expecting the rise to come from N/A. Good strategy though, have to say.

This is UK, not Europe. European charts don't exist.

Halo is very big here

Really?, I didn't think it was, then again I base that opinion on the many people I know that have no interest in it. And the reception it gets in comparison to non N/A countries. I thought it was much more popular in new zealand and australia than the uk.
 
Something tells me people would care more if it were... more pleasing to the eye, say.

I used Cheesemeister's format. Since there are no platforms nor numbers listed, I omitted them. This is probably not going to be a weekly thing; I did it to see how it would look like. I don't have a parser thingy (magical powers) like Cheese, so I don't have links nor something that automatically sets this up.

If people like it, I might do it again. :D

Oh, and if Cheese doesn't like me using his format, I'll desist forthwith.

And I guessed and used the last names for the publishers.

Wait, did I just transcribe the wrong list? Crap!

Did some Halo fans finally jump in and purchase a 360 along with Crackdown and Gears of War? Gears moved up 9 spots.

Isn't Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo Tales due this week as well?

Some places say it is, some say it isn't. The Game linked list is the most reliable but mainly because they wait for so long to update it that they have the games ready to ship.

Wait, did I just transcribe the wrong list? Crap!

That's fantastic - I jigged the top list (the one you did - it's the main chart) about to make it more leggible. Probably would have been quicker to manually format it but the code keeps it inline a bit more.

Feel free to format/post the Euro charts as and when they appear - usually I don't, but as I'd been reading this one for a good few minutes and it hadn't appeared I figured I'd go ahead.

cooking marmar selling well..? totally unexpected..
Um, what else is there to play on the currently fastest selling console in Europe?

It's at a budget price, it's made for the Wii and there are a lot of new Wii owners. I wish 505 games all the best over the next months.
 
I am only interested in full price software charts for the UK and Ireland. (and other European countries if available)
The budget titles is just useless because you have to know the current situation of the individual budget titles to evaluate it. All prices means even less.

FlightOfHeaven I award you Pokemans. Please compile full price lists for future weeks in Europe.

Yup, it's going to be interesting. Gears and Crackdown both jumping like that is probably a sign of systems moving. We need an official Halo 3 prediction thread. For future reference.

I agree Full Price is the most meaningfull chart that chart-track releases, but the analysis usually covers the All price chart so I went with that.

The budget chart can take over in the summer though as it is all the reissues and child-oriented movie cash ins that tend to dominate in the UK.

I must admit though - Pony Friends at Full Price bucks this trend and will be rising over the summer in the Full Price chart to match Cooking Mama - and so far it's getting better reviews!

That's soo harsh
To be fair, that is probably why it got the 11-spot jump this week. Now those people can discover the real game when the Beta is over.

On a related note, it will be interesting to see how far Crackdown crashes when the Beta is over.

To be fair though even if it did crash completley out of the charts after the beta. Given the fluctuation it's been having in the charts out of it's presence few games achieve that kind of stability and even fewer for new IP's. So it wouldn't be completely shameful. I wish Vf5 and Resistance was still up there though. I would say motorstorm but I wouldn't want people encouraging the kind o length it had for games to come.

What the ****. :lol

Couldn't knock one without the other really - we're equal opportunities here. :lol Both are outselling Motorstorm (the number 2 PS3 game behind Spiderman3) so it seems that adding value to games is a surefire way of getting them noticed.

And just for the record I like Wii Play's duck hunt simplicity, and enjoyed Crackdown on a friends X360 and would buy it if I had the machine (and no - not just for the beta...). :D
 
Wait, you're telling me Pirates of the Caribbean won't be released on the NGage?

WTF I JUST PURCHASED AN NGAGE FOR THAT GAME!

When they release the new style Ngage they may start getting the movie tie-ins again. Until then stick to the Gizmondo...

DS is taking over Ireland and Wii once again performs very well in the UK.

Between the two charts, Wii has seven games and PS3 has four (with its lowest shower being Resistance: FoM). Wii games have extremely good legs, especially in the case of Wii Play (hovering in the middle of the top ten for a while when there's stock) and Sonic and the Secret Rings. Zelda: TP is also just under Motorstorm and it's been out since Wii's launch!

Next week should be better for Wii because Super Mario Strikers Charged can easily pull in some good numbers throughout the UK and Europe especially.

Mario Striker is going to be a massive hit in Europe: soccer + online + Mario + good TV ad + few competition + on Wii = crazy sales.

If you are in the UK & want to get a Wii before the summer either go out and pre-order one with the game this week or try your luck on Friday. Nintendo have sent out so many more units than usual this weekend is your best chance!

Expect a sales based press release next monday too - that Nintendo PR guy knows how to get the forums to light up at just the right times - hopefully with some more games anouncements too!
