Mario Tennis Fever has slipped down the UK physical chart rankings in its second week on sale, landing at number seven after a strong debut. Established hits and long-running franchises reclaimed higher positions, pushing the new tennis entry further down the list.
- Week-to-week movement: Mario Tennis Fever opened at number two last week but dropped to seventh in its sophomore week.
- Titles ahead: EA SPORTS FC 26, Mario Kart World, Pokémon Legends: Z-A and Minecraft all finished above the tennis release this week.
- Franchise resilience: The results underline how recurring series and evergreen experiences continue to dominate physical sales in the UK.
- Market context: Strong competition from both new and perennial favourites can rapidly reshape the top 10 as release schedules and player interest shift.
