Skyward Sword Fastest Selling Zelda Game Ever

Hey, Ocarina of Time, I’m really happy for you and Imma let you finish, but Skyward Sword is the best selling Zelda game of all time!

Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime told USA Today that Skyward Sword has sold 535,000 copies since it’s launch, and counting.

Super Mario Land 3D also brings Nintendo some good news this holiday season, selling 500,000 copies since launch and and becoming the fastest selling portable Mario game in Nintendo history.

"What this has been able to do is drive our Nintendo 3DS business in only eight months to surpass the full first year volume of the original DS and we still have the bulk of the holiday to go," Fils-Aime says, "and we still have the launch of Mario Kart 7 (out Dec. 4) to continue driving our full-year sales on Nintendo 3DS."

Over 500,000 Wii’s were sold on Black Friday alone this year.
