Charts: Street Fighter V off to a worse start than SFIV

Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 makes it 11 at number one.
Bengt Lemne 22 February 2016

The other newcomer in the top ten was Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon that managed a nith position in the all formats list and fourth for individual SKUs.

It would seem not even a Shoryuken was enough dislodge Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 from number one on this week's UK retail charts as Treyarch's sales juggernaut gets its 11th week at number one (all formats - in spite of dropping 25% of last week's sales). The big release this week was Capcom's Street Fighter V and while managing to register the best-selling SKU of the week - it failed to beat Black Ops 3 when all versions were tallied up. In fact, Street Fighter Fighter V sold less in its first week than Street Fighter IV (PC/PS3/360) when it came out back in 2009.

If you're curious about the all-time record for number of weekly number ones, Black Ops 3 still has some way to go to beat Who's Wants to be a Millionaire? that managed a staggering 18 weeks in 2000-2001.
