UK Software Sales Chart: Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza Lead Nintendo Switch 2 Titles – Week Ending September 13, 2025

The UK software sales chart for the week ending September 13, 2025, has been published, providing crucial insight into consumer preferences in one of Europe’s most influential gaming markets.

Once again, Nintendo demonstrates its enduring appeal, with several flagship Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch titles holding strong positions among the weekly bestsellers. Topping this week’s chart is "Borderlands 4" from Take 2, debuting in first place.

However, for Nintendo, the spotlight shines on "Mario Kart World" and "Donkey Kong Bananza," which held the second and third positions respectively.

While "Mario Kart World" slipped one position compared to the previous week, "Donkey Kong Bananza" surged forward, climbing two spots to enter the top three.

This movement highlights the persistent demand for Nintendo-branded entertainment, particularly on the Nintendo Switch 2 platform, underscoring the company’s dominance in family-friendly and party game segments. A Nintendo spokesperson recently remarked that maintaining multiple titles on the UK’s top-selling chart week after week demonstrates both the quality of their releases and the deep loyalty of their fanbase.

For the week concluding September 13, 2025, eight Nintendo-published games appeared in the top 20, reflecting the company’s successful content portfolio across the Switch and Switch 2 hardware lines. Other high-performing Nintendo titles include "Minecraft," which advanced to sixth place, "Mario Kart 8 Deluxe" at seventh, and "Super Mario Party Jamboree," which made a significant jump to fifteenth place.

Meanwhile, established titles like "Animal Crossing: New Horizons," "Nintendo Switch Sports," and acclaimed adventures "The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom" and "Breath of the Wild" continue to enjoy strong sales momentum despite being released in previous years. Within this week's top 10, third-party publishers like Electronic Arts, Konami, Ubisoft, and Bandai Namco Entertainment also held prominent spots with hits such as "EA Sports FC 25," "Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater," and "Star Wars Outlaws." These results reflect a healthy competitive landscape, though the sustained strength of Nintendo exclusives is a standout on both Switch and Switch 2 platforms.
