The first Wii U Top 20 is in

The Wii U is finally with us, and with it comes the first weekly Top 20 for the machine thanks to data from UKIE GfK Chart-Track.

As was reported earlier, Nintendo’s first party duo of Nintendo Land and New Super Mario Bros U rule the roost in first and second place. Ubisoft scores the highest selling third party game with ZombiU, which charts in third.

Three multi-format titles occupy places four to six in the shape of Sonic & All Stars Racing Transformed, Batman: Arkham City Armoured Edition and Call of Duty: Black Ops II.

However, there were some titles that didn’t perform as expected – FIFA 13, Darksiders II, Mass Effect 3 and Skylanders Giants were all left languishing around the bottom of the listings with very low sales numbers.

Four games missed out on the Top 20 – Funky Barn (505 Games), Your Shape: Fitness Evolved (Ubisoft), Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper (Tecmo Koei) and Transformers Prime (Activision).

Here’s the inaugural Wii U Top 20 for the week ending December 1st:

1. Nintendo Land (Nintendo)
2. New Super Mario Bros U (Nintendo)
3. Zombi U (Ubisoft)
4. Sonic & All Stars Racing Transformed (Sega)
