DSi sells 300,000 in US, Europe during launch weekend

Nintendo DSi launch sales in the UK were revealed earlier this week. Now, more generally, Satoru Iwata has provided further insight in terms of how the system performed. According to Iwata, who was speaking at the Foreign Correspondents’ Club of Japan, the DSi sold 300,000 units in both the US and Europe over launch weekend.

Meanwhile, Shigeru Miyamoto was also at the event and highlighted plans to make the DS and DSi into something that can be used for more than just gaming – tests in schools, maps, tour guidance, coupons, and more.
