Which sort of makes the sudden drop to 18 a bit more jarring unless I'm missing a reason there.
Splatoon 2 suddenly jumping to 21 after not being in the chart last week is also weird.
Almost looks like Nintendo games are having a great week for some special reason: Splatoon 2 returning to 21st place, MK8D up 2 , BOTW up 10 places to number 10, and SMO up 1 as well. Maybe children are buying games with money they got for Christmas?

We also see FIFA 18 Switch going up from 35th to 28th and Skyrim Switch coming back at 34th in the Value All Formats ranking.
Seems like a very healthy holiday to Nintendo Switch even on the UK.
There was a new tracker who had digital data and would get physical data at the start of 2019. Can't remember the name, though.
Crash was probably very popular christmas gift so now after christmas it saw big drop (It's kid friendly game too and PS4 doesn't have too many of those). Nintendo trinity (Zelda, Mario Kart and Odyssey) are bought by almost all new switch owners so it makes sense they have better hold. Maybe Splatoon had some price promotions?
Right, but it's not just the Nintendo software that rose through the ranks: Skyrim Switch and FIFA 18 Switch went up a decent number of places as well.
GTS is >400k in physical by now most likely.
Yeah, I have been saying this for a while now, but these titles are showing good legs in pretty much every market. Its a sign that the market for these types of games on the Switch is rapidly growing, and that future titles will perform better from the get go. I still dont understand why some posters are calling FIFA Switch a massive failure. It clearly isnt.
With a not-too-generous 20% digital attachment, Gran Turismo Sport definitely sold over 500K copies in 2017. Personally speaking, I don't see the game staying in the UK charts for as long as Forza Horizon 3 did, especially with the latter being bundled throughout the entire year, but here's hoping that its legs are relatively long.
Gran Turismo Sport ended up being my surprise of the year after a rather underwhelming prerelease reception. The HDR implementation continues to astound me!
I don't think is "not-too-generous". To seem a realistic estimate, let's not forget how many of those sales come from bundle and deals.
Of course we still talk about very good numbers.
Bruno MB do you have the full year scans from 2016 published by MVCUK?

Four PS4 exclusives in top 20. It was a good year for PS4 exclusives.
The game was discounted on PSN like the retail version and we know that the digital share in UK can be as big as 50% and GTS is the kind of game that it's well suited for a digital version giving the full online nature of the game.
I bet that the digital share is way higher than 20% for the total.
I agree, I think it's way higher than 20% and probably closer to 40%, but that's just a guess.
GT Sport just seems like the type of game that digital makes more sense.
