Original PlayStation nostalgia is big business in the UK.
You think? UK may be PlayStation land, but Mario is Mario. Plus unlike Crash, Mario will have a long tail. It always does.

This is amazing.For the haters
I'm curious how long they can continue funding remakes for though.
I can see Odyssey outselling Crash even by the end of this year in the UK. But yes at least lifetime is a certainty.It won't week 1 due to the Switch stock situation either way unless something changes, but lifetime Mario should do it.
I think what's heartening is that this isn't just nostalgia.
People are playing and really enjoying these games again. I've re-played them all periodically over the last 20 years and I've always maintained they hold up better than many regard them to do.
The success of this collection is legit but it's not a game that's going to be put down or forgotten about once people have had their nostalgia fill.
Oh my gosh a new Destruction Derby, please!!!First Wipeout, now crash....will we get a new ridge racer/destruction derby remake next?
We officially back to 1995 Bois!!
RR Type-4:First Wipeout, now crash....will we get a new ridge racer/destruction derby remake next?

It makes me happy that this and the Ratchet reboot did so well. We need these franchises back on the market regularly.
Pretty much.
Certainly in the UK at least, don't bet against the nostalgia for the PS1.
PS: checking Amazon UK just now, and it is completely out of stock except for a couple of scalpers.
People have spoken!
They want more platformers and less cinematic games!
Really happy about its performance, now gimme Spyro trilogy.
A lot of people downplaying it as a just the nostalgia driving sales. Game has a solid 80 on Metacritic, it's good platforming.
I just think in general regardless of game style, we need CHEAPER games (to make) that can be sold for a range of price points and do not need to be monetized as service games to be sustainable. And this is that! This game rocks.
While not cheaper to make per se, we're definitely seeing an increased interest in cheaper games at retail ala Dishonored Death of the Outsider, Uncharted Lost Legacy, Crash and Everybody's Golf.I just think in general regardless of game style, we need CHEAPER games (to make) that can be sold for a range of price points and do not need to be monetized as service games to be sustainable.

Its not just Sony but I know they're pushing the $40 game category again. Knack 2, Everybody's, Uncharted Lost Legacy Golf will all be $40 when they launch and I believe there are a few other games as well. Several of these games are also very family friendly as well as having things like co op and MP so they appeal a very wide potential audience in several aspects.
WTF...why? You're mad a game people worked on is doing well in a hobby you enjoy? Insert CHANG photo here lol.
You're saddened that people are happily buying and enjoying a game? Oh well.

No, the fact that Crash Banicunt was never a good game and that there has been so many great new ORIGINAL games out this years so far and this game ends up being the best seller on Amazon, no wonder developers are scared to try and create a new IPs
Crash Bandicunt
Are you the sole authority on what makes a good game or something? People who are buying crash like it, many people do...Also remakes do not stop new ip's from being made, the two are not mutually exclusive, your post makes no sense and is childish. The people making remakes are not the same devs making new ip;s.
How old are you?

It doesn't help the situation, a remake can be turned around in the fraction of time that a new IP can and if it sells double the amount then sure yeah devs are going to go for the quicker more profitable option

Aren't you vocal minorities tired of spreading this narrative like it's an objective opinion even though both original and remake reviewed well.
Yeah sure if you call a 6.8 from Gamespot and 7.5 form IGN for the original a good score

I sometimes like to cherry pick too.
Not cherry picking, just the first 2 hits that came up in google
