Up-to-date stats for the biggest games on Wii U, 3DS, DS and Wii.
Andrew Goldfarb - Nintendo has revealed updated sales figures for its biggest games on DS, 3DS, Wii and Wii U. The figures come as part of Nintendo’s latest financial report and were released alongside current hardware sales.
By platform, the following figures represent worldwide sales including games bundled with hardware and current as of March 31, 2013:
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
Hanzla from eXputer inquires: "If Xbox can care about preserving its games and legacy, what exactly is wrong with Nintendo, trying to kill game preservation single-handedly?"
Ahh yes the good old game preservation of saving all your games to a removable hhd on the Xbox 360, taking it round your mates house, setting up multiple tvs to
Be met with “save data corrupted, please re download”
Or how about removing 360 games
From the store
, download them now or else, and, better hope to god that save data doesn’t corrupt, or it’s lost for ever
Nice one ☝️
This is just a scammy PR move to distract from the fact they are going digital only and trying to push streaming and subscriptions only.
No gaming company has pushed harder to remove ownership than Microsoft.
Without discs there is no preservation, preservation can't be done by the rights holders it can only be done by the consumers, anything else is a lie.
Nobody wants this. Sales or the lack of it in the case of XBOX is very telling. I wonder how the adorably all digital series X will fare. Adorably dismal perhaps?
Only time will tell, but for from someone like me suspecting that Xbox is trying to gracefully exit the console market, that "forward compatibility" team is trying to get Xbox games playing on Windows PCs. I mean, it's nice that they're not planning on exiting with a "enjoy your games while the hardware still works" message, so that's nice. They still have a brand to protect via Microsoft so probably feel obligated to have a better exit strategy.
Danish from eXputer: "Nintendo has historically gone against player-made content and emulation of its games. This has done much to harm the company's image."
They need to stop announcing these mods and fan remakes until they're finished. Finish it, upload it, and then if Nintendo dmca's it tough shit. Once it's online, people can share it around, even if the original download gets taken down.
This is all coming from the mouth of short-sighted fandom and grifting madness.
No.... it wont. There is a clear defined reason why they don't. This is nothing new. Make your own shi7 from your own original ideas especially if you are trying to capitalize of it it. Duh.
Yeah, hire people that have zero respect or understanding for an established process. Wow. Yep. Totally makes sense.

Nobody does it like Nintendoes.
34million mariokart wii sales, wiifit 20million,and people say these games WON'T move systems?
This is what people here just can't grasp. Nintendo games are cheaper to make, and sell way more than any other franchise from any other system. People keep claiming doom for Nintendo, when they are better off than any other system. The Wii, DS, and 3DS are outselling competition, and the games are selling huge amounts.
Even if WiiU sells "poorly" Nintendo could afford low console sales for multiple generations. The WiiU isn't even doing terribly, just about the same as the other consoles when they came out.
And people say Nintendo is doomed.
I was just about.to say the same thing. Mario kart wii sells 34 mill but costs a fraction of what it cost sony to make the ever popular granturismo. Ppl wont understand why nintendo is succesful while all over the net we keep hearing of companies either closing down or revising their studios to turn a prophet (eg. SquareEnix stating tomb raider at 3 million+ isnt considered succesfull
