Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, which launched in North America last Friday, has already sold 490,000 units between physical and digital sales, Nintendo has announced. That number accounts for sales between November 21 and November 23.

Thanks to the success of Super Smash Bros., it’s now the fastest-selling Wii U game ever in the U.S. Mario Kart 8 previously held this record.

Nintendo has also confirmed that more than 14 million Super Smash Bros. games have been sold in the U.S. alone.

Scott Moffitt, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing, said of today’s news:

“The Nintendo holiday is off to a great start, but there’s a lot of work left to do and a few more surprises in store for our fans. With great deals coming on Black Friday and Cyber Monday and great content like Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker launching next week, Nintendo will offer shoppers the best combination of fun and value this holiday season.”

…By the way, this model is actually a trophy. Diorama style. The Orbital Gate Assault stage actually took a whole year to complete.

A pair of Pikmin 3DS themes are coming out in Europe this Friday, Nintendo has confirmed.

The company tweeted a few minutes ago:


We already knew about the theme on the left thanks to a Miiverse interview with Shigeru Miyamoto. The one on the right is a complete surprise!

Surprise!

All the way back in July, Nintendo Everything’s weekly podcast “Here’s a Podcast” ended abruptly with a strange-yet-totally-normal episode about, among other things, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. In a few weeks, all three podcast crew-members are going to be back together in the same city, and they all felt like it would be appropriate to record another episode as a parting gift to you all until further notice. Now, I smashed my finger under a couch earlier so it hurts to type, which means I am going to make this brief:

If you were a fan of the podcast, we’d love if you would do us a solid and send us some listener questions mail to [email protected]. We’ll need some for the show, after all! You can include parting words if you like– maybe some favorite moments from the 102 episodes prior– or just a regular old question; the future of the podcast looks at least semi-hopeful, but just in case… you may want to consider these your last emails ever!

I’d expect the podcast to be put up either the weekend of December 6th or December 13th.
