Nintendo Hardware Sales Revealed

Nintendo UK boss David Yarnton has revealed the impressive Worldwide, European and UK sales of the Wii and DS. He said that, "We’ve sold close to 438,000 Wii’s in the UK in five months. It’s really hard to have targets – we have seen unprecedented demand." It seems the scale of the results are a surprise even to Nintendo with the targets they set originally having to be "re-assessed all the time".

Here are the full results:

DS:

Global: 40m

Euro: 11m

UK: 3.1m

Wii:

Global: 5.84m
