Now at 52 Million WW.
The Nintendo 3DS family of systems has now reached 15 million units sold in the United States, becoming the eighth Nintendo system to reach that mark in the country. Nintendo said in a statement that the success of the platform was made possible by the array of great games available for it.
“'Software sells hardware' has been Nintendo's mantra for nearly 30 years. And, when you consistently make fun, unique, exclusive games featuring the likes of Mario, Link, Donkey Kong, and Pokémon, you can sell a lot of hardware," Nintendo said in a statement.
