Nintendo Sells Out - Kinda
Filed in archive News by John B on December 08, 2006

And the fun doesn't stop there. Take a look at some of the other numbers released by the video gaming giant:
- In the first week of availability, the Wii sold just under 500,000 units in the United States. That's around 70,000 systems a day.
- 87% of the Wii buyers also picked up The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, pushing 412,000 copies off store shelves. That's the highest sales rate for any launch game since Super Mario 64 released with the Nintendo 64 over ten years ago.
- The Nintendo DS continues to perform well in stores, pushing an estimated 920,000 units in November alone.
- The Game Boy Advance is still alive and kicking and sold 640,000 systems in November.
- Wii buyers bought an average of two additional games with their system (not counting Wii Sports). The industry average is one game with a new console.
