When we check out the latest UK Charts data each week, we generally have a pretty good idea of where some of the newest titles will end up placing. Granted, Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake was a little lower than our estimates when it debuted in 14th place last week, but when we scrolled through this week’s list and found it had disappeared entirely, well, we frankly couldn’t believe it.
Alas, it’s true. The exceptional RPG remake from Square Enix has crashed out of the top 40 altogether, marking a stark difference between audiences’ tastes in the UK when compared to Japan. We knew it would never do gangbusters, of course – Dragon Quest never really does well in the UK – but goodness, this is absurd. At least its performance over in Japan will likely be enough to keep Squeenix satisfied for now.
Sigh… Anyway, nothing we can do about it. Elsewhere, Nintendo is performing well this week, with the likes of Super Mario Party Jamboree, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Mario Bros. Wonder and Nintendo Switch Sports all claiming a spot in the top 10. Meanwhile, Mario & Luigi: Brothership has continued its descent down the charts to land at position 17.
