Best-Selling Video Games of 2009

The top 100 on Amazon UK that year.

A definitive look back at the 2009 Amazon UK chart. Click any cover to find it on Amazon.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 announces a new order, topping the chart on both Xbox 360 and PS3 and confirming the shooter as the year's biggest event. Yet Nintendo still floods the list — Wii Sports Resort with MotionPlus, Mario Kart, New Super Mario Brothers and Wii Fit Plus all chart heavily. Fitness peripherals proliferate, with EA Sports Active and My Fitness Coach joining the Balance Board crowd. Surprises include Just Dance debuting modestly and Professor Layton appearing twice. With Modern Warfare 2 setting sales records while Wii hardware persists, 2009 captured two audiences colliding at the height of the generation.
