If there’s one thing that really gets the Nintendo fanboys riled up, it’s when one of their favorite games is unseated from the top of the sales charts. Well, I’m more than happy to say Sega’s Sonic and the Secret Rings did just that by beating down The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and claiming the top spot in last week’s top 10 Wii games in Australia.

Sonic also took the third spot in the overall top 10 list.

It feels great to see Sega and Nintendo battling it out again, even though Sega made a deal with the devil.

In other news, Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz also made the list by claiming the ninth spot. Not too shabby, Sega.

Sonic has actually been doing really well in all charts. Here in the UK he has been up there for weeks now! And Monkey ball has only spent 1 (maybe 2) weeks out of the top 10 since the Wii launched. Add to that that in the US Sonic was in the top 20 for a 2nd condsecutive month and sales are good for the blue hedgehog. Shows he is not quite dead after the 360 and PS3 versions!!!
