Yeap that is a good ideia but right now I'm near 3 million.

This person has been extracting data since the GT5 day's. As of the first week of January they have GT Sport at 3,071,800 players. Beta players are not included.

http://www.kudosprime.com/gts/stats.php?stat_preset=nb_players_per_week

It's as close as we'll get until official numbers are released, but we can already see it under represents actual sales.

Zhuge confirmed UK retail sales where near 400k at Christmas, without digital. The database however currently shows 379,300 players. Likewise, sales in Spain are officially over 190k, while the database shows 175,700 players. This shouldn't be a surprise with gaming backlogs, more so when so many GT Sport copies came with PS4 and PSVR purchases. I know I have a stack of games ready to go, all purchased around Christmas.

PUBG actually climbing?! That's amazing.
Also what happened to GTS? Back to normal price and no bundles anymore? Or wom in effect?

At this time of year the difference between a lower top 10 placement and anywhere else in the top 30 is little more than a few thousand units. That difference is almost entirely down to the weekly deals and bundles. For example FM7 was £18 last week on Amazon and at other retailers. The only time these catalogue titles will shift serious numbers is if they are value added games in future bundles, ie retailers adding a couple of titles to a new God of War of Spider-Man bundle. Well, outside of any specific promotions, ie to tie in with a game update.

'GTA V' returns to the top for an incredible 14th No.1

Having commented last week on the rise of Rockstar/Take 2's perennial favourite 'GTA V' which climbed back in to the Top 3, the title now benefits from promotional activity and grabs No1 for the first time since June 2017 (week 25).

This means that 'GTA V' now has 14 weeks at No1 on the Overall All Formats (Units) and is now third in the list of all-time No1's, moving ahead of 505 Games' 'Zumba Fitness' (13 weeks at No1) . 'GTA V' is now just 2 weeks behind Nintendo's 'Wii Fit' which racked up 16 weeks at No1, but still 4 weeks away from all-time All Formats No1 chart topper, Eidos/Square-Enix's 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire' (18 weeks). Over the 226 weeks on chart 'GTA V' has spent over half within the Top 5 (123 times) and has never been out of the Top 40.

Activision Blizzard's 'Call of Duty: WWII' hovers at No2 and EA's 'FIFA 18' drops from No1 to No3. Sales units on these top 3 titles are close, so we will have to wait and see who claims another No1 next week. Ubisoft remain at No4 for a fourth consecutive week with 'Assassin's Creed Origins' and Nintendo climb 7 places to No5 with 'Mario Kart 8 Deluxe' – this game is currently the top-selling Switch title in the UK, has 38 weeks on chart and has so far not been out of the Top 40.

Yet Another year of GTA V domination commences.

Zelda charting so high 9 months in, especially in my home country of France, warms my heart.

I wonder how much it'll have sold when all is said and done. Could this become the best-selling Zelda ever? I wouldn't be surprised.

And Splatoon 2 is still hanging on to the 20th place in the ranking. It's rather interesting how suddenly it dropped into that slot, literally entering the week after christmas and not budging. Is that just the steady selling power of Splatoon 2 or is there some promotion or something going on in the UK?
Hopefully it's the thicc squid legs :P
Would be neat if it keeps selling, such a wonderfull IP, i am hoping when official Switch bundles happen at standard price that Splatoon 2 is one of em.

Ok. This is starting to be ridiculus. Forget 100 million. 120-130 million lifetime? And to think that the second best selling in the series barely sold 30 million, jesus.

Starting? This was already ridiculous a long time ago lol I mean, this is a game from 2013 and here we are still talking about the fact that it's still charting in sales rankings across the globe.

That looks weird.

GTS got > 100k in October.
GTS got > 200k in November.

U:TLL got > 100k in September.
U:TLL got > 200k in December.

ME:A PS4 got > 100k in July... the others 2 versions never got > 100k.
Just shows that it must have been quite close around the latter parts of the charts.

Switch momentum all across Europe is pretty impressive right now. Software sales seem healthy too.

GTAV is more than a beast, really. CoD has done wonderfully well and AC:O is a great success too.

In a way, 2017 was the year of comebacks for a lot of declining franchises/publishers. Great news for the industry.

The December chart for Germany is out now as well:

BIU_Gamecharts_Top20_Dezember2017.jpg

Thank you very much.

The bumps for Switch software are insane ! Probably a huge December for the Switch HW and SW wise :

+6 for SMO
+11 for MK8D
+16 for Zelda
New entries for Splatoon and Rabbids.
+ Just dance carried by the Switch SKU probably.

Amazing legs for Crash too !
