The latest physical UK games chart will look pretty familiar if you saw last week's. With very few changes to the top 10, it's clear most Brits are enjoying the sunshine. According to GamesIndustry.biz, only 148,107 boxed games were sold in total, and selling 2,500 copies would get you into the top 10. An extremely quiet week for games at retail, then.
What it does mean is that competition for the top spot is relatively strong. Super Mario Maker 2 continues its winning streak at number one, but Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled is only about 1,000 copies behind it, holding onto second places for another week. F1 2019 also holds its position in third as the season races on. Dragon Quest Builders 2 is the sole new entry in the top 10, landing squarely in the middle at number five.
Here's the latest top 10 in full.

- F1 2019

Odds on Cricket 19 to appear in next week's list?
crash team racing is a better game than super Mario maker.so overtaking it at number 1 in sales doesn't prove that it's not a better well rounded game.thats a fact playa.word up son
Meanwhile 3 Nintendo exclusives in the top 10 yet again and two in the top 5. cue but switch users only buy exclusives comment
F1 2019 sitting comfortably on the podium. Yesterday's Silverstone GP was a fantastic race, especially the battle between the young guns, Charles and Max.
@KnightWolf If i would buy a Switch then yes only for the exclusive games. Why is that a issue?
@ApostateMage And Dani and Lando.
If only there were a decent tennis game to cash in on the awesome Wimbledon final.
Happy to see Builders in the top 5.
@Flaming_Kaiser It's not. I imagine some people are just tired of Nintendo's games selling extremely well being re-contextualized as fuel for insults.
Although the "Nintendo gamers only buy Nintendo games" meme isn't even true this gen. Bloodstained and DQB2, for example, are both selling the majority of their copies on Switch in the UK. Imagine how much better that equation likely looks in regions such as Japan or the U.S. where Nintendo does better.
Great to see F12019 holding on! Great game... CodeMaster has done it again.
Am I hearing this correct? Dragon Quest Builders 2 performed better in the UK on Switch then the PS4?
@Link41 67% of retail sales on Switch apparently.
Likely down to the weird marketing. The PS4 version was shown at E3 and in various Japanese demo streams. That was it, and there it was treated like the only release.
The Switch release is published by Nintendo, has been shouted about for months now.
Might start a meme, "Playstation gamers only play GTA5"
@playstation1995 lmao. I needed a good joke today.
@koaeinferno so keep laughing .or watch sanford and sons.martin.threes company.you will have a good laugh.word up son
@Ralizah Who cares im talking for myself. And that is my choice like it or not. Never heard about this meme anyway. And why would you care anyway. 😆 Bloodstained is better on the PS4 in every way why should i go for the Switch version?
@playstation1995 I'm more of a Married With Children kind of guy
@koaeinferno @koaeinferno al bundy is the man.word up son
@Flaming_Kaiser @Ralizah To be fair, my PS4 Pro is an exclusives box.
@Knuckles-Fajita See i would have the same with the Switch.
@Flaming_Kaiser All I'll say is that you should re-read my response, as you seem to be under the impression that I'm trying to convince you to play games on other platforms. I'm not.
@koaeinferno Ah... Married With Children. It would be near-impossible for that show to even be greenlit today.
