Here Are The Top 10 Best-Selling Games In The UK This Week

Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled has stormed back into the lead at the top of the UK physical games chart. The remaster is back at No.1, as Switch exclusive Super Mario Maker 2 keeps pace at No.2.

More Switch games are found throughout the top 10 for the week ending August 10, with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (No.3), Fire Emblem: Three Houses (No.7), Minecraft’s Switch port (No.9) and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (No.10) all charting well. There were no new entries in the top 40 this week.

We enjoyed the latest Crash remake here at GameSpot, awarding it an 8/10. “Simply put: This is a remaster done right,” we said in our Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled review. “Nitro-Fueled maintains the spirit and rock-solid foundations of a childhood favorite while building on it and modernizing it where necessary–even if the handling might take a bit of getting used to. Adventure mode’s classic variant feels a little tough, but your first race on Roo’s Tubes or Sewer Speedway will bring a nostalgic grin to your face regardless. When the nostalgia fades, Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled remains fun and engaging enough to keep you racing on with a smile on your face for much longer yet. It’s good to have Crash back.”
