Nintendo platform titles dominate Euro charts

Nintendo has dominated both the Spanish and German software sales charts for the week ended July 13, according to figures from Media Control GfK International.

The Spanish chart saw Nintendo represented by eight titles for the Wii and DS, with Super Smash Bros Brawl taking the top spot, followed by Wii Fit in second place and Wii Play at third place.

MGS 4 and GTA IV, both for the PS3, were the only titles for non-Nintendo platforms on the chart at seven and ten respectively.

The German chart was entirely taken up by titles for the Wii and DS and, much like the Spanish chart, Super Smash Bros Brawl took the top spot.

Wii Fit came second followed by Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of Time in third place and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of Darkness in fourth.

Bringing up the rear of the German chart is Mario Kart DS in ninth place and Mario Part 8 at ten.
