European Top 10 for October 2017:
European Round-up:
With a single Nintendo title - the European top 10 continues to be dominated by indies.
Stardew at #1 I believe this is the first time an indie title is at the top of the charts. Congrats to @ConcernedApe for the success. To be number 1 during the month which Super Mario Odyssey released it's absolutely mind-boggling. This is the fastest selling Mario in Europe and even if digital makes up less than 10% of total sales it would still mean that Stardew Valley sold close to 50K in just Europe during October.
Golf Story climbs up in the charts in it's second month, great legs by the title and no doubt with a Japanese release slated for the winter Golf Story will continue to sell as the audience grows bigger. SteamWorld Dig 2 another very well received game sees a minor drop this month as it is able to maintain very good position ahead of Sonic Mania and a bunch of new releases.
There is three more indie titles making up the top 10 in Europe two which released this month.
When looking at major third party games once again Minecraft comes out on top, its a non-Nintendo evergreen, has not exited the monthly charts since it's release and is definitely the best selling game this year on the Switch eShop. FIFA 18 has done ok this month rising one position, whether the result is decent for EA is a matter of their expectations. Still FIFA digital adoption hasn't been quite as high in Europe as Madden in NA so that might explain it's lower ranking here. Sonic Mania in it's 3rd month finally drops out of the top 5, still the title has been a runaway success in Europe.
Notable absentees:
- Mario + Rabbids drops out of the top 10 after being #1 last month
- Fire Emblem Warriors doesn't chart in Europe during its release month
Will update the thread once we have the NA Top 10 in a few days
