Disney Interactive Studios’ film tie-in was unable to dislodge the No.1 chart position from Spider-man 3’s web, but does debut above Mario Strikers Charged Football which begins its chart life at No.3.

Nintendo format exclusives are abundant in the top ten, with Mario Strikers joined by Wii Play (No.6), Brain Training (No.7) and Cooking Mama (No.10). There’s also second week success for Eidos’ Pony Friends on Nintendo DS which enters the Top 20 at No.18. Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops is the only other Top 40 new entry at No.30 – No.1 in the PSP chart.

Expect Lara Croft to make another appearance in the Top 40 next week with the release of Tomb Raider: Anniversary. Other titles expected to do well are Shadowrun for Xbox 360 and PC, and Wario: Master of Disguise.
