Nintendo has announced that six DS titles have now shifted over one million copies each in Europe. A triumphant press release yelps:
"Nintendo's Touch! Generations range has sparked the imagination of people around the world. Sales of the innovative software continue to soar across Europe with Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training: How old is your brain? shattering the one million mark. Animal Crossing: Wild World, which lets you experience a joyful and exciting second life, has also attracted over a million people to its world and puppy phenomenon Nintendogs has sold over 4 million copies in Europe.
The company is quick to recognise the contribution its Touch games have made in widening the userbase of the console - apparently 44% of DS owners are women. Traditional games have performed well, too:
"Nintendo's gaming titles have seen similar success with the portly plumber, Mario, enjoying three huge hits with New Super Mario Bros., and Super Mario 64 both breaking the one million sales mark and Mario Kart DS selling over 1.5 million copies."
The DS itself has now shifted seven million units throughout the continent.
