Specific hardware sales weren’t outlined, by Nintendo confirmed that 3DS software sales are up 89 percent year-over-year. That’s partially due to the release of New Super Mario Bros. 2, which moved over 295,000 units last month. Mario Kart 7, Star Fox 64 3D, Kid Icarus: Uprising and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D saw improved sales as well.

Nintendo additionally confirmed that Super Mario 64 DS has now obtained five million sales in the US. New Super Mario Bros. and Mario Kart DS are the only other DS titles to reach this milestone.
