Pokémon Scarlet and Violet might be buggy, but they're top sellers in the UK

We all know that Pokémon Scarlet and Violet have some performance issues, but that hasn’t stopped the pair of games being the biggest UK physical launch this year.

Yeah, alright, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are… less than perfect. Frame rate issues a plenty, limited clothing options, this guy. None of that matters in a capitalistic world though, because as reported by GamesIndustry.biz, the ninth generation of games are the top sellers in terms of physical copies sold on launch in the UK.

Prior to the launch of Scarlet and Violet, FIFA 23 was the biggest boxed game launch, but the two Pokémon games are up by 4% in comparison. They’re also the second biggest launch for the entirety of the series, only behind Pokémon Sun and Moon on the 3DS. As noted by GamesIndustry.biz, Sun and Moon doing so well is in part because they launched the same year as Pokémon Go, marking a high interest in the series overall.
