Disney Magic Castle: My Happy Life has debuted at number one in the official Media Create gaming charts, beating fellow heavyweights Killer is Dead and Pikmin 3 to claim victory. I have absolutely no idea what it is.

It's a 3DS romp that includes shopping, dressing up, fishing and battles. It looks a bit like Animal Crossing set in the Disney universe at a glance.
