ELSPA lists Fifa 09 as UK’s number one.

Last week it seemed Call of Duty: World at War or Mario Kart Wii would make the UK’s top selling games this Christmas; but when two games quarrel, a third rejoices. Fifa 09 shot up from position 3 right to the top and takes the crown in the struggle for supremacy on domestic screens.

Electronic Arts has developed FIFA 09 and it’s the sixth year in a row that the folks from EA supply the best selling Christmas game in the UK. FIFA 09 sales have increased by another 89% and therefore could surpass last week’s number one call of duty (down 13%).

Mario Kart Wii is a continuous burner and has been listed in the ELSPA charts for 36 weeks now.The game moved down from position two to three and sold more copies than follow-up Need For Speed.

Quantum of Solace had risen by 53% last week and could continue to do so in the last week. The reward: position seven for the James Bond game (up from 13).

Wii Play and Dr Kawashima’s Brain mainly remained unchanged at position six and five. Wii Fit wnet down two places and now sits on position ten in the UK list for the best selling game.
