Fire Emblem beats Wolfenstein to the top of the UK charts

Nintendo published four of the top ten games in the UK last week

Fire Emblem: Three Houses beat Wolfenstein: Youngblood to the top of the UK physical retail chart.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses was one of four games published by Nintendo in the UK top ten, along with Super Mario Maker 2, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order, and Mario Kart 8: Deluxe.
