Charts: Pokémon Sun/Moon wins Black Friday week

Maybe not an official victory, but a moral one.
Bengt Lemne 28 November 2016

All Formats (all prices):

As always when a Pokémon game sees release there is much activity at retail and the launch of Pokémon Sun/Moon was no exception. In fact, if you combine the sales of the two versions it handedly won this week's UK retail chart, however, as the two versions of the game for some reason are counted separately, the official all formats win goes to FIFA 17. However, the two best selling SKUs of the week was Pokémon Sun and Moon, so there really is no debate who the real winner is.

Several PS4 exclusives re-entered the charts or made massive gains on the back of this being the strongest week of hardware sales for PS4 since the launch. A great comeback from Sony who have been falling behind Microsoft in hardware sales in recent months in the UK.
