EuroGamer (http://eurogamer.net) is reporting that Mario Kart Wii has reclaimed top spot from Wii Fit in the UK All-Formats Top 40 according to the latest Chart-Track data.
Sales of Nintendo's plumber-led kart racer rose 6 per cent week-on-week, which was enough to topple Wii Fit, which slumped 24 per cent in the other direction and ended up second.
Not quite Usain Bolt from either, then, but also enough to see off resurgent Olympic opposition from Beijing 2008 and Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, no doubt buoyed by events in China and in at three and four respectively.
Nintendo's evergreen Wii Play rounds out the top five, unmoved from last week, while Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock stands firm at six, last week's number two Soulcalibur IV stumbles to seven and Big Beach Sports, Brain Training and Guitar Hero: On Tour make up the ten.
