32 (__) PS4 KNACK (SONY COMPUTER ENT.)

Super Mario 3D land didn't even make the top 40.

Times changing, bow down pheasants, because Knack is the future

Well, we certainly won't have to worry about there being a Knack game 30 years from now.

Decent troll attempt. I'd give it a solid 6/10.

Mario's time has come and gone. Gamers want a new icon, and they have spoken, with Knack. Live with it, or die from it.

It doesn't matter how much Knack sells. It will never be as good as Mario. Ever.

So this is the future for the PS4? Yeah I predicted that it wouldn't be that good.

The funny thing is, Knack is just a rehash of pretty much any action-adventure game out there. Just with a new coat of paint like everything else Sony makes.

I'll choose to try something new to expand my horizon than doing something over again for the 6th time. Besides I heard knack can be challenging, that interest me.

But why choose something that's terrible? Wouldn't you rather "expand your horizon" with something good?

To try it? Though from that list I would prefer Need For Speed. But if it's between Mario and a Beat them up i'll play the beat them up because I just beat New Super Mario world the other day. And then I would rather buy Rayman Legends if i wanted to play another platformer. In my mind set there's just honestly too many choices to go for mario again. If i had a Wii U i'd probably definitely go for pikmin though

Super Mario 3D World is absolutely incredible; it is so much fun either by myself or with a group of friends.

I still really want to play Knack but none of the rental stores around here have it available. Le sigh...

It's funny how the XBox 360 is dominating the charts.

Where are the worldwide sales for Knack and Mario? It's obvious no one cares about Mario in the U.K. I'd like to see the U.S., Europe & Japan sales totals though.

Super Mario 3D World is obviously a much better game by a mile.

I guess since there's not much to play on PS4, so people are buying this game in the hopes that it will be good? Only reason I can think of.

Why aren't sheep buying Mario? What else is there to play on WiiU other than Mario and Nintendo games? There are over 4 million WiiUs out there and Mario is still flopping. 2-3 million PS4s and Knack (a mediocre game) is outselling Mario lol. Sheep don't have any room to talk, you guys have failed Nintendo. I thought people would buy Mario at least, what a disaster.

I downloaded my copy. Also, these sales are strictly for the UK, where almost nobody owns a Wii U.

Pretty much. Even the SNES sold like a joke here (and all of the EU) compared to the Genesis/Mega Drive.

Knack should not be underestimated.

It was developed by a very small team on a small budget in a very small time frame. SCEJ released Puppeteer (9/10) around the same time as Knack.

Knack 2 would be a very different game. I'd prefer a Crash 4 though.

No reason to buy a WiiU until X & Bayonetta 2 comes out, so not suprised.
