UFC 2009: Undisputed Nabs Two Top 10 Spots Down Under


Kotaku breaks down Undisputed’s performance in Australia during it first week in release:

All Format Full-Priced Games Top 10 for the w/e May 24:
1. Pokemon Platinum (DS)
2. EA Sports Active (Wii)
3. UFC 2009: Undisputed (PS3)
4. Wii Fit (Wii)
5. Wii Play (Wii)
6. UFC 2009: Undisputed (360)
7. Mario Kart (Wii)
8. Brain Training (DS)
9. More Brain Training (DS)
10. Killzone 2 (PS3)

This is a great performance for the game in a country that currently has cagefighting, but not necessarily at the visibility level it has in other areas like the US, Canada, or the UK. The game will be a good way of socializing folks (esp the 18-34 demo) to the sport to a greater degree in The Land Down Under. Australia has been mentioned by UFC Capo di tutti capi Lorenzo Fertitta as a possible future spot for a live card, and the success of the game there would be a nice passive way of laying the groundwork for that.
