What do you know? It turns out that remastering Burnout Paradise was a bloody great idea and EA should let Criterion make more arcade racing games again. Burnout Paradise Remastered zips back into first place, just like it did when it first released a whole decade ago in 2008. It’s not the series’ biggest launch – that’s still Burnout 3: Takedown – but should hopefully do enough to make the business people at EA take notice.

Right behind Burnout Paradise is Kirby Star Allies, debuting in second place and making for the biggest launch of a Kirby game ever. Alas, Capcom’s Devil May Cry HD Collection for PS4 and Xbox One could not match EA or Nintendo, as it only mustered 13th place. Unlucky for some!
