 When Wii Fit first debuted on the UK video game charts back in April, it shot to the top as the third largest video game launch in the region ever. The game's been conspicuously absent from the top spots in the last few weeks though.Apparent, this wasn't because it's popularity was waning - stocks were just in short supply. Now that stocks of the shelves have found themselves adequately resupplied, the game shot back on top of the charts. On that note, you'd better grab yourself a copy now in case supplies run out again. The UK charts experienced a major reshuffling this week, though only one new game managed to make itself to the top 20, and this is Wall-E. Kung Fu Panda reappears on 9th place after being on 16th last week, while Lego Indy and Super Smash Bros. Brawl were knocked down a peg with Wii Fit's rise. Here are the rest of the top games in the UK for the week ending on July 12:

Awesome, now I might be able to get hold of one! Things like gold dust here.
Brawl still in charts? Even more brilliant! Still pumping hours of the day into that, don't think I've even played PC games more than this!

Because it's not that great of a game! It's just cutscene after cutscene with attempted gameplay theft from Gears of War (which I also don't like). It's a fan-service, OTT, anime with 6 hours worth of actual gameplay.
It's perfect cult fodder in that it's got a limited market.
As I always say it doesn't stop YOU from liking it. But you have to look at these things realistically.
Though I am surprised to see that MGS games sell worse with each new game...

1-12 are not good games. Not at all.....
These countless Nintendo sequels are nothing more than fan service. They still have the same gameplay (and problems) as past games, just new characters and levels.

» The same could be said for...
...GTA and Call of Duty. They are great (like, superb) games, but a sequel is generally the same as its predecessor, except MGS4, which takes things to a whole new level and perspective.
I reckon the top 12 consists mainly of good games, especially Brawl. However, it's a travesty that MGS4 is only 18. Then again, at least it's there. I'd say it's the best game ever, possibly.
What you reckon, MCS? I know you don't like anything to do with Nintendo, so what about Metal Gear? You've got to like that!

It's good to know that the MAJORITY of even the UK population disagrees with Mr. Common Douche Bag.
2 and 12 are awesome games.
"nothing more then fan service"
What kind of an ignorant, stupid and moronic comment is that? Who exactly is Nintendo supposed to service if not their fans? You get "dumber" by the day.

» Wii Fit restocked in UK, shoots back on top of charts
Sounds pretty Wii-orientated to me.

Anything with a Wii logo on it sells fast. Nintendo does such a piss poor job of stocking everything people feel "lucky" to find one.
I bet 2/3 of those Wii fit sales are going on ebay immediately.

That's 100% false. There are plenty of Wii accessories not selling at lighting speed.
"Nintendo does such a piss poor job of stocking everything people feel "lucky" to find one."
Seeing as how they outsell the competition this would be based on absolutely NOTHING. Just like the rest of the ignorant information in your fat head.
"I bet 2/3 of those Wii fit sales are going on ebay immediately."
I bet you are dead wrong just like you are 99 percent of the time.

Even if I say something positive to the Wii, I'm still wrong, despite all the times you pointed out stong sales of Wii crap (unneeded accessories.)

You think that because you're an idiot.
You see, this isn't a flip flop because I NEVER claimed that ALL of Nintendo's accessories sell WELL.
That's something you ASSumed because like I said above, you're an idiot.
Also, you didn't say anything possitive, you were being a smartass and you know it. So take your lies somewhere else.
