MCV has learned that Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games for Wii has now sold over a million units in the UK alone. Combined with the DS version, the game has sold 1.35 million units.

“Mario and Sonic has made gaming history with over a million software units sold on the Nintendo Wii within the UK alone,” SEGA Europe North MD Alan Pritchard told MCV. “The title has been an immediate hit from launch and we will continue to re-invest and market this title throughout the rest of the year with a hope of reaching over two million sales by the end of our financial year.”

MCV notes that the game is shifting an average of 20,000 units a week on Wii and DS combined.
