Nintendo Shows Off Sales Numbers
Nintendo’s doing well these days, we all know that, but how well? Recently released documents for investors had some sales numbers attached to them, showing how the best selling Wii and DS games are doing.
Top Wii sales:
Wii Sports: 11,860,000 (including hardware bundles)
Wii Play w/Wii Remote: 6,320,000
Mario Party 8: 2,890,000
Super Paper Mario: 1,740,000
Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree: 1,380,000
Mario Strikers Charged: 1,330,000
Top DS sales:
Nintendogs: 15,770,000
Pokemon Diamond/Pearl: 12,170,000
New Super Mario Bros.: 11,150,000
Brain Age: 9,660,000
Mario Kart DS: 8,530,000
Brain Age 2: 7,530,000
Legend Of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass: 1,350,000
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: 1,290,000
Strong numbers indeed, but one thing is missing; Zelda: Twilight Princess. We already knew that is wasn’t that popular in Japan, but it has sold at least two million copies outside of Japan, according to NPD numbers dating back six months. Apparently Nintendo knows better. Other than that, the list looks like what one might expect from Nintendo at this point.
