This year’s Black Friday was especially kind to Nintendo, with the company announcing that it sold through a whopping 900,000 Nintendo DS and 600,000 Wii units between November 21-27. That equates to 9000 systems sold every hour.
Nintendo attributed the brisk sales to its strong software lineup as well as the recent introduction of more timed bundles, which further bolstered consumer interest.
“For the past several years, consumers have decided that Nintendo defined both top value and all-inclusive entertainment, and that sentiment continues again at the start of this shopping season,” noted NoA president Reggie Fils-Aime.
