Uncharted Collection had a commercial running before the screening of The Martian here in Sweden, so I'd say they're pushing lots of marketing behind it. I'd be surprised if it didn't beat TLoU:Remastered on the first week sales.

They've been coming in between 10 and 10:30 the last few times, but it's always slower around this time of year as stores are late collating and sending the data.

Thanks.

Should I work or wait...

Not sure it'll be over FIFA PS4. May get 2nd or 3rd. No.1 would be pretty damn good for a remaster.

100k bar is quite a lot for the UK charts in week one sale. when was the last time an exclusive cleared it?

Slightly off topic, but what happened to ZhugeEX? Considering their contribution to SalesGaf, I really hope that they return soon...

£289 bundle marketing has been insane. I fully expect to see uncharted at the top spot.

Do bundles count towards software in uk charts?

I don't know if it'll clear it, but it'll be close. Price drops tend to spike console sales by 40-60% week 1 and if close to every sale has Uncharted in, it'll be doing tons that it wouldn't have done otherwise.

Yup.

‘FIFA 16’ (-59%) scores a hat-trick at No1 this week as its unbroken reign at the top of the chart continues.

It’s now halfway to matching its predecessor’s six week unbroken run at the top in 2014. New entry ‘Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection’ has to settle for second place despite becoming the 8th biggest PS4 launch of the year so far. It also misses out on joining the recent trend for re-mastered/re-released titles to debut at No1 (such as Destiny: The Taken King, Gears of War: Ultimate Edition and Rare Replay).
‘Destiny: The Taken King’ (-35%) in fact manages to climb one place to No3, ahead of ‘Lego Dimensions’ (-68%) which slips two places to No4 in its second week of release. ‘Forza Motorsport 6’ (-41%) stalls, stuck at No5 for a second week, while ‘Grand Theft Auto V’ (-6%) speeds back up the chart from No9 to No6 – its highest position for 6 weeks.

‘Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer’ (-55%) and ‘Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain’ (-41%) both drop one place to No’s 7 and 8 respectively. ‘NBA 2K16’ (-77%) remains in the Top 10, falling to No9, after launching strongly last week at No3. Released on Tuesday, ‘Rock Band 4’ developed by Harmoix and published by Mad Catz, brings the music controller style video game back to the Top 10, debuting at No10. The only other new entry to make the Top 40 this week is Activision Blizzard’s ‘Transformers Devastation’ at No21.

8th biggest launch is something to go on though, right?

Didn't end up beating FIFA PS4, so I'm guessing if the usual price drop spike happened, a lot of people picked that up as well.

8th biggest of the year, not lifetime.... below FIFA16 PS4 on the charts

Miles Quaritch · Oct 12, 2015

Not bad at all for Uncharted.

Not sure I agree with comparing Its success to Rare Replay or Gears. Both released in relatively quiet periods.

Ombala · Oct 12, 2015

8th biggest PS4 release this year.
Something too use when we estimate numbers.

Yeah, should be something to go on if we know the other 7.

Miles Quaritch said:

Yup, but they're a chart company that doesn't release numbers, so they push people to make the comparison that 1 is the best you can do.

Price drop did have an effect on PS4 sales I think looking at how some PS4 games have risen on the individual chart.

Katana_Strikes · Oct 12, 2015

Can someone post the chart please?

It's sandwichted between PS4 and XBOne FIFA versions, we should have a very good idea about the number

And there's another sales flop under Platinum's belt.

kadotsu · Oct 12, 2015

The HD collections real purpose is to bring in people to the franchise that didn't own PS3s so the NDC will probably be bundled to hell and back until Uncharted 4 releases. That said Uncharted games are always weird when it comes to sales. I never would have thought U3 sold as well as it did from just looking at NPDs and the EU charts.

Yeah, it's likely FIFA will be number 1 all formats still, which means it'll be hard to work out a number. Hope I'm wrong there though purely so we can work out a lower number for it.

EDIT: If Uncharted does beat FIFA all formats, expect a delay as Chart Track scribble out all references to FIFA getting a hattrick.

FIFA 16 (-59%) scores a hat-trick at No1 this week as its unbroken reign at the top of the chart continues.

I don't think so. We only had week 1 splits so at best, we'll know the maximum compared to all formats FIFA.

Katana_Strikes · Oct 12, 2015

Rock Band didn't do so hot but it's not bad all things considered. Transformers bombed. Another Platinum hit.

dolemite · Oct 12, 2015

Just noticed that Rockband 4 Xbone version outperforms the PS4 version.

Hasney · Oct 12, 2015

So FIFA all formats did about 100,100 by my calcs based on Bruno's number for last week, meaning that Uncharted was less than that.

dolemite said:

Not surprised. I'm not considering touching it until I get an XB1 since that's where all my DLC is and with how the 360 was over here, I think a lot of people will be in that boat.
