The new Eidos game Batman: Arkham Aslyum had enough power to dethrone the number one game of the past several weeks in the UK, Wii Sports Resort.
Wii Sports Resort is Nintendo’s first blockbuster hit of 2009, but the masked hero was bolstered by a multi-console release and significant word of mouth to make it Eidos biggest all formats number one since 2000.
We expect NPD data for the US to come out any day now, and that will give us a good sense of how Batman is tracking against the almost-certain number one Wii Sports Resort in America.
