Nintendo DS Sells More Than All Home Consoles Combined in June

The whole Nintendo DS franchise, including the Nintendo DS lite, and the Nintendo DSi sold a total of 766,000 units. What does this mean? That means that the DS kicked ass and took names, because it sold more than every other console and system combined. Fucking combined.

The Wii is still doing great having 362,000 sold. Consumers also snapped up nearly 374,000 Wii MotionPlus accessories, including nearly 205,000 packaged with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 from Electronic Arts and 169,000 additional accessories sold on their own. The Wii Sports Resort game launches July 26 and comes packaged with Wii MotionPlus.

“More consumers continued to gravitate toward products that offer quality experiences and great value for the whole family,” said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “Consumers again selected Nintendo systems for those experiences, particularly our hand-helds.”

Four games published for Nintendo platforms finished in the top 10 best-sellers of June in the United States. These include EA Sports Active at No. 3 with more than 289,000 sold, Wii Fit™ at No. 4 with more than 271,000 sold, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 with Wii MotionPlus at No. 7 with nearly 205,000 sold and Mario Kart™ Wii at No. 8 with more than 202,000 sold.

This means that Nintendo is kicking ass. In particular, the DS is kicking ass. Surprise? I think not…
