UK Charts: Nintendo Switch Closes Out 2024 With The Old Favourites

The final full week of 2024 has been and gone, and by the time you’re reading this, it might even be 2025 where you are — hello from the past!

Anyway, in the UK, we’ve got the final full 2024 results for the boxed charts, and it’s another solid and predictable week for… well, everyone. While the top ten isn’t as healthy as it was last week for Switch games, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has managed to hold firm in fourth, alongside Super Mario Party Jamboree in fifth.

Nintendo Switch Sports has had to fall back one spot to make way for Elden Ring, which roars back into the charts after a few weeks off — we’re sure that made a fair few Christmas presents, or perhaps some Boxing Day pick-ups. And Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Minecraft, and Animal Crossing: New Horizons have slipped out of the top ten, casualties of Cyberpunk 2077 and Grand Theft Auto V returning.

But Sega’s hedgehog duo, Sonic X Shadow Generations, has managed to crack back into the top ten this week — likely as a result of the movie, which launched on 20th December, right before last week’s charts closed. Plus, it sold more copies on Switch than any other platform again.

That’s enough of that, though — here’s a look at the full top 40 for the final week of 2024, with platform breakdowns for all of the titles available on other consoles as well as the Switch:
