UK Charts: Vita leading with Uncharted: Golden Abyss – February 26th

Last week was an exciting time for many gamers with the launch of the PlayStation Vita. It appears that the software sales report for that week places Vita titles on top as well.

According to the UKIE Games Charts by GfK Chart-Track, two key PS Vita titles accounted for a whopping 50 percent of the total software sales across all formats. The top 40 software list is led by Uncharted: Golden Abyss and FIFA Football for the Vita.

Rayman Origins clocked in at number five due to Vita sales, and Wipeout 2048 also made the list at number eleven. Other notable Vita titles to make the top 40 are F1 2011, Ridge Racer, Virtua Tennis 4: World Tour Edition, Hot Shots Golf: World Invitational, and Ultimate Marvel VS. Capcom 3.

Other notable PS Vita titles released that can’t be tracked because they are download only are Escape Plan, and Super Stardust Delta.

   They did outsell… Syndicate.
   I think it will be more interesting to see official numbers comparing Vita’s worldwide launch sales to PSP’s. VGC’s numbers aren’t encouraging, but they are VG, so it might not be that bad. What is encouraging is that we may expect to see Vita become as much a bargain as PS3 eventually did:

   “We’re taking a long term and committed view on PS Vita as a platform, just as we did with PS3 and continue to do so today”

   I’m really interested to see how it evolves over time.

    Wait, you guys liked Patapon? I got about 2 and a half hours into the first one and just couldn’t play anymore of it.

    @roca

    That’s why I expected the game to be good. I was sorely disappointed.

    Good Uncharted video though. I’m guessing you know the player ‘L-Roca’ and it’s some ridiculous coincedence?

    Also, nice jump at 2.37!

    it’s not* some
