News: Nintendo's Million Sellers

Nintendo have released details of all their million selling titles from the first six months of this fiscal year. Let's just say that a lot of units have been shifted.

While recent reports have indicated that Nintendo's net profit has decreased for the first time in seven years it appears that there has been no slowdown for the software. In the first six months of this fiscal year Nintendo have 10 first party titles that have sold over one million units: seven on the Wii and three on the DS.

During the last six months 34.8% of all software shipped for the Wii has been one of the titles listed below. Similarly for the DS 15% of all software shipped has been one of the three games (or five, depending on how you classify the Pokémon titles) listed below.
