Wii Play back on top of UK sales charts this week

by David Hinkle on Jan 6th 2009 5:37PM

Wii Play has finally regained its spot at the top of the charts in the UK, as it has bested previous top-seller Mario Kart Wii this week. Not since February of last year has Wii Play been the top dog in the UK, which is just plain surprising, if you ask us. Sure, we may not all agree on the bundle's worth, but it's still a pretty tempting package, especially to someone who hasn't even tried the bundled software for 5 minutes, gotten bored, and wandered off to make a sandwich.

Any game that inspires you to make a sandwich is definitely worth the purchase. :P

Now we just need to bundle Wii Play with a sandwich.

People buy this bundle for the controller and figure its worth and extra $10 for the game, which it is.

I'd like to see how many copies are sold without the controller - that would be a far more accurate gauge of the game's popularity.
