According to an MCV report, 3DS sales have reached 2 million in the UK. The 3DS, 3DS XL, and 3DS are all included in that figure. It’s not quite as high as the DS’ total at this point in its lifecycle, though 2 million is nothing to snuff at.

Puzzle & Dragons Z is off to a monstrous start in Japan. In its first week, the game sold well over 500,000 copies.

Puzzle & Dragons Z may have moved even more had GungHo Online Entertainment shipped additional product. Analyst David Gibson says that the title sold through 78% percent of its debut shipment – a very high figure.

Update: Deal is dead on Amazon, but can be found for the same price on GameStop.

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate has been seeing sales on Wii U as of late, but there haven’t been too many discounts for the 3DS version. That’s no longer the case! Amazon is selling Ultimate for $20 on 3DS. It’s currently back-ordered, but you can still place an order.

Like many Wii U games, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze supports off-TV play. But if you happen to be playing regularly – on TV that is – the controller will go dark. Retro implemented the functionality in order to “save battery.”

While we’re on the topic of controllers, Tropical Freeze will support a whole bunch of them. You can use the GamePad, Pro Controller, Wiimote and nunchuck combo, or Wiimote by itself (sideways).

Despite the vitriol online, this year’s VGX Awards appear to have been a big success on a technical level, with the show bringing more viewers for more time than they had every thought possible. Viacom’s Erik Flannigan said that the show “exceeded” their expectations, and that the average view time (32 minutes) was “way beyond our wildest dreams”.

Producer Casey Patterson chimed in, saying that they’re already talking about next year’s show:

“Yes, we would love to do this show again and those are the discussions we are having right now, and we’ll produce that show, that stream in the same way we produced this year’s which is to take the feedback of the gamers, good and bad.”

“The only thing we can do is assure gamers that we are listening. They can tell from the show we built this year that we like them talking to us. Good, bad, ugly, we want to them to continue to talk to us at the decibel that they have been.”

– VGX producer Casey Patterson
