<p>It’s a new week, so it’s time to check out the UK software charts again. Last week <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/super_mario_odyssey">Super Mario Odyssey</a></strong> was the star of the show, <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/01/super_mario_odyssey_holds_its_own_in_the_uk_software_charts">holding its own against strong third party competition</a> on PS4/Xbox One. This week we see it slip from 6th place to 8th place, but we’d imagine that Nintendo will more than happy with that.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/legend_of_zelda_breath_of_the_wild">The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild</a></strong> jumps from 10th place last week to 9th place this week. Could people who picked up a Switch be looking for that next game to add to their collection perhaps? Whatever the reason, it’s a strong showing for a game that is almost a year old.</p>
<p>If we look at the <a class="external" href="http://www.chart-track.co.uk/index.jsp?c=p/software/uk/latest/index_test.jsp&ct=110048">Switch only charts</a>, there isn’t much movement this week really. Aside from Super Mario Odyssey and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, we’d seeing UK consumers picking up lots of copies of <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/mario_kart_8_deluxe">Mario Kart 8 Deluxe</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/splatoon_2">Splatoon 2</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/1-2-switch">1-2-Switch</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/mario_plus_rabbids_kingdom_battle">Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle</a></strong>.</p>
<p>Poor old <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/arms">ARMS</a></strong>, it’s a quality game but just doesn’t seem to have clicked with UK consumers. In the Switch only charts it is now in 19th place. </p>
<p>Let us know what you think about the movement in the UK charts this week with a comment below.</p>
