Nintendo's April-December sales recap reveals Mario Kart 7 sold 4.54 million, 3DS logs three million-unit sellers; Mario Kart Wii tops 30 million lifetime-to-date.
Nintendo may have failed to hit its sales expectations for the 3DS, but the device isn't without its success stories. As part of Nintendo's post-earnings information dump, the publisher revealed three first-party games that easily topped the million-unit sales milestone.
Super Mario 3D Land topped the 3DS' sales charts through December, selling 5.03 million units worldwide. The portly plumber's latest outing arrived to a solid critical reception in November. December's Mario Kart 7 posted a close second with 4.54 million units sold, while June's The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D sold 2.49 million units.
On the Wii, Nintendo saw a strong performance from Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. Launched in late November, Link's latest action adventure sold 3.42 million units through December. That figure was good enough for a third-place finish on the Wii chart, behind Mario Kart Wii (4.91 million) and New Super Mario Bros. Wii (3.53 million).
Turning to the DS, Pokemon White/Black continued to put in solid numbers, topping the handheld's chart with a combined 2.91 million units sold. New Super Mario Bros. and Mario Kart DS followed, with a respective 1.87 million units and 1.26 million units sold, respectively.
