191,000 units sold in one week is the highest in the history of the games market.
Nintendo is today celebrating a phenomenal week of sales for its Nintendo DS handheld. The platform holder has announced to MCV that weekly sales for the handheld reached an industry record of 191,000 units, more than any hardware format has ever achieved during the same period.
"We're obviously delighted to be able to announce this," said a Nintendo spokesperson. "Momentum has been increasing on DS sales and to achieve the highest weekly sales figure ever in the history of the games market is fantastic."
The DS moves above the PSP in the record books, having moved an impressive 185,000 units during its first week on sale back in September 2005.
