UK Charts: Watch Dogs Beats Mario Kart
Watch Dogs claims top spot in a week with two big releases.
The open-world hacker was Ubisoft’s biggest launch ever, and the largest new IP launch in the UK ever.
Not that Mario Kart sold badly. This week’s number two is the biggest Wii U game launch in the UK to date and the second largest Mario Kart launch.
Wolfenstein: The New Order drops to third, while Fifa 14 holds onto fourth. The remainder of the chart is business as usual.

Dan Naylor
Hi all, I'm Dan 'Nailz' Naylor, News Editor for the site (and I've just realised there's a pleasing alliteration to that). Almost all the news posts you see on the site are either by me or written because I say so, and we try to make them a little more interesting than a regurgitated press release so I hope you think we're succeeding.
Normally I'll be sinking my time into the latest RPG, but I'll play almost anything, with racing games a particular favourite. Owner of a Wii U, I have no regrets purchasing the console, though Smash Bros. hasn't left the disc tray since Christmas.
You can find me on Twitter and PSN as MacShanks, and feel free to hit me up if you have any questions, queries or feedback!
