Reel Fishing Challenge continues it's stranglehold on the top spot. With the full retail version of that game out now I wonder if that will have any effect on the sales of the WiiWare edition. We'll see in the next few weeks. World of Goo has seen a bit of a resurgence. That title deserves to be up near the top every week. Even after this long it's still a quality title and one of the best available.

We're seeing that Monkey Island has a strong following. Chapter 2 sees its debut on the list this week knocking off Overturn. Chapter 1 rounds out the top 10 this week. Let's find out how well this second chapter of the game does and if it can top the earlier episode.

There's not a lot of interesting movement to talk about this week. NyxQuest did fall the most this week, losing seven spots. Sexy Poker held onto its #8 spot. Let's hope that trend doesn't continue.

Tune into this spot next week to see what other new and exciting developments have happened.
