The previous week saw a successful launch for both Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and Super Mario Bros, Sonic Superstars, and Wonder in the United Kingdom. According to the most recent Gfk numbers (as reported by the Games Industry), it is the most successful launch of a 2D Mario game in the history of the area, and it is only “narrowly” behind Super Mario Odyssey and Super Mario 3D All-Stars.
On the other hand, another major development is that Sonic Superstars managed to compete successfully against Nintendo’s crown jewel. The 2D side-scrolling video game made its debut in fourth place, selling 49 percent of its copies on Nintendo Switch, 34 percent on PlayStation 5, 10 percent on Xbox, and six percent on PlayStation 4. The launch sales were 63% lower than those of Sonic Frontiers; nevertheless, it is possible that it may receive a lift from Black Friday later this month.
Other recent games to enter the market include Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged, which debuted at position 32. The video game Lords of the Fallen, which began the previous week in fourth position and has now fallen to the 18th spot, has seen a decline in sales of 70 percent.
