Nine top-forty entrants with two games top of the pile

PS Vita success in first week sales

PlayStation Vita games had accounted for a quarter of the UK top 40 chart, new sales data reveals.

The latest Sony handheld was released at retail last week with more than twenty packaged launch titles on offer.

Two of those, SCE’s Uncharted Golden Abyss and EA’s FIFA Football, landed first and second place in the all-format chart. Another seven made the top 40, with Rayman Origins Vita landing at fifth, far above EA’s new console entry Syndicate.
