Ubisoft's Wii-exclusive rhythm and dancing game Just Dance topped the all-platform sales charts in the UK for the week ended April 10, marking the fourth time since its release in November 2009 that the game has led weekly sales, Chart-Track said Monday. Ubisoft's chart-topping performance with Just Dance outdoes any other publisher so far this year in the UK -- Electronic Arts saw three weeks at the top of UK charts (Mass Effect 2 with two weeks and Battlefield Bad Company 2 with one) and Sony (God of War, Heavy Rain) and Square Enix (Final Fantasy XIII, Just Cause 2) topped the rankings twice each. Ubisoft recently said that Just Dance has sold over 2 million copies. Chart-Track said the game has been the best-selling Wii game every week in the UK this year except for week one, when Nintendo's own Wii Fit Plus outsold Just Dance, which sells for $39.99. There were no new releases in the UK top 40, Chart-Track said. With Ubisoft's Splinter Cell: Conviction due out this week, the firm said that the publisher could see its fifth week with a number one spot. Below are the all-platforms rankings for the week ended April 10. The all-platforms chart lists games according to combined sales of all versions of a given title. UK All-Platforms Top 10 1.
