Another week has passed, which means it's time for some Australian game sales!
Mario Kart Wii has snatched the lead from the
Wii Fit game, the
Wii Play bundle is still selling steadily in third, followed by the oh-so-popular
Super Smash Bros. Brawl and
SingStar Amped.
Most of the games in the overall sales list are either the from the Wii or the DS. With all the success Nintendo has been having lately, I'm not surprised. To check out some console-specific sales, hit the source.

It's hard to say if the last week of the Olympics gave Segas' Beijing 2008 - The Official Video Game of the Olympic Games a boost, but that hasn't stopped the PlayStation 3 version of the game moving up four spots from the previous week, into sixth spot. The Xbox 360 version of Beijing 2008 also made it into the charts, though at the much lower position of number 10. Nintendo's Brain Training series are regular contenders in the charts, with Dr Kawashima's Brain Training: How Old Is Your Brain? taking out the seventh place last week.

People can't afford the shitty game prices that we're dealt with. I'd say that's also the reason why the PS3 is selling shittily over here - People can't afford to shell out $700-$1000 for a console that they might buy a handful of games for.
Wii play and SingStar, never heard of SingStar, didn't think that Wii play would be way up there.
I sort of liked Mario Kart Wii. It was better than Wii Fit though.
