Wii Fit has topped the UK chart for an eleventh week, in the process becoming Nintendo’s longest serving all formats bestseller.
The game’s latest chart success sees it surpass Pokemon Yellow’s record of ten weeks at the top.
The only new entry in the top 40 is EA’s The Godfather II, the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC title debuting in second place ahead of a resurgent Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, which jumped six positions to third.
Resident Evil 5 and FIFA 09 both dropped two places, to fourth and fifth respectively.
Call of Duty: World at War was down one spot to sixth, Professor Layton and the Curious Village was a non-mover at No7, while Wii Play, Mario Kart Wii and Streetfighter IV rounded off the top ten.

I wonder what the explanation for the Mario and Sonic resurgence is? Still boggles me how that game can remain so popular in the UK for years, yet doesn't chart anywhere else in the world. I guess they love their Sonic over there.
