Minecraft blocks top spot on UK charts, Pikmin 3 takes a dive

4.5
A relatively quiet week on the UK charts allows for some meditative crafting, with Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition squarely in first place. The Last of Us moves up to the second of us again, as Pikmin 3, which debuted last week in second, drops all the way off the top ten and into ... still looking ... still looking ... there it is: 15.

It's not all bad news for Nintendo, as Animal Crossing: New Leaf moves up into third this week and Mario & Luigi: Dream Team stumbles ever so slightly from fifth to eleventh.

The Smurfs 2 occupies fifth place, with a sales increase of 115 percent following its debut two weeks ago. That's just smurfed-up. Check out the UK top ten after the break.

Top 10 UK Software Sales (All Formats); week ending August 3:
Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition
The Last of Us
Animal Crossing: New Leaf
FIFA 13
The Smurfs 2
Far Cry 3
Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes
Call of Duty: Black Ops
Tomb Raider
Assassin's Creed 3

Weren't a lot of people really hyped up about Pikmin 3? I saw a video on IGN and a vast majority of the comments were about how excited people were for the game and how long people have been waiting for another Pikmin game.
