Nintendo’s Wii sensation holds on at the top of the ELSPA GfK ChartTrack All Formats Top 40
Until recently it had never managed more than a week at the top of the charts – but now Nintendo’s Wii Fit is celebrating its fourth successive week at the top of the ELSPA GfK ChartTrack All Formats Top 40.
It’s Wii Fit’s eighth week at the top of the UK charts in total, taking it past Nintendo’s former record holder Pokemon Gold. And there’s more success for Nintendo this week, too, with news that DS exclusive Mystery Case Files: Millionheir, an off-shoot of Big Fish’s tremendously successful casual series, has entered the charts in fourth place.
Elsewhere in the listings, EA’s FIFA 09 claws back one spot to claim second position, one place ahead of Activision Blizzard’s Call of Duty: World at War. Nintendo’s previously hard to find Professor Layton and the Curious Village follows Wii Fit’s lead in remaining plentiful on the High Street – allowing it to linger in the Top Ten in fifth.
EA’s Skate 2 slips from number five to number eight on its second week of release, whilst Sega’s Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games re-enters the higher echelons in ninth position.
The ELSPA GfK ChartTrack All Formats Top 10 for the week ending February 7th in full:

Re: ...
How can this be when all of the distributors are telling us they have no stock ??? Something doesn't ring true !!!
Re: Re: ...
I call shenanigans. I've not seen this in my store for weeks.
Re: Re: ...darren
there is pently of wii fit stock darren, you just have to have a good account manager, spend regular amounts with your supplier and most of all be nice, ringing up and saying oi have you got any wii fits doesnt work !!
we get about 10 a week and even had 10 turn up xmas eve
Re: Re: Re: ...darren
This will change once the big hitters are released, SF4 will knock it off no prob and then resident evil 5 which I have no doubt will remain at the top for several weeks.
Re: Re: Re: Re: ...darren
We are nice to all of them and ask for several other items that are hard to get hold of as well as asking for standard stuff. I suppose its all who you know and what you know - im pleased to see someone is getting some and not just the big boys/supermarkets. Rebel you must be one lucky guy !
