Move Over 10 Million

Reports showing a total worldwide count of 10 million DS sales from Tuesday was false, the total number is actually closer to 13 million. Nintendo of Europe has revealed that 3.5 million Nintedo DS units have been sold since its release in March (Europe). Software most contributing to that number includes the Nintendogs range and Mario Kart DS. This is a major rise from the previously calculated 1 million in Europe.

Hopefully with the release of Animal Crossing: Wild World in March, European DS sales can see a further rise. This, and the anticipated Metroid Prime Hunters, along with a Pokemon sequel for DS, both releasing in the coming months, the future for Nintendo innovative handheld looks bright.
