Mario Golf: Super Rush drives into first place in the UK charts

Unsurprisingly, another first-party Nintendo game has been able to storm its way to the top of the UK boxed retail charts. Mario Golf: Super Rush joins Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, Monster Hunter Rise, and New Pokemon Snap as yet another chart-topper from the Nintendo Switch catalogue. Sales for the game didn't exactly break new records for the company, but they represented an increase of 17.5% when compared to the previous Mario sports title Mario Tennis Aces.

Elsewhere in the charts, there have been several other new entries. The highest of these is Scarlet Nexus which was able to claim the eighth-place spot and Alex Kidd In Miracle World DX was able to make a respectable debut in 17th. Additionally, the SEGA published Olympic Games Tokyo 2020: The Official Video Game landed in 11th place, and the Nintendo Switch version of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 charted in 29th after a 394% increase in sales week on week.
