Switch 2’s release date is just a few weeks away, and its proximity has driven the purchase of Switch 1 games into a real rut (in the UK, at least).
The latest look at the UK physical charts will be a familiar sight for those who tune in weekly, with Switch sales not being remotely close to what they used to be. New releases DOOM: The Dark Ages and The Precinct take the gold and silver, while the recent strong showing from Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has weakened slightly, with the title dropping to eighth.
“But wait, none of those are on Switch,” you may be saying, and you’re right. You have to go all the way down to 10th this week to find Nintendo’s first entry (Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, no surprises there), and then down to 15th for the other familiar faces.
We can only assume that next month will see the return of a much more Nintendo-dominated picture, but expect more of the same until then.
Here’s a look at the full top 40 for this week, with platform breakdowns for all of the titles available on other consoles as well as the Switch:
