Nintendo will soon have to start making more Japanese people to sell DS consoles to, as the portable blasts past the 20 sales mark in just three years.
Nintendo has managed to sell well over half a million unit on average every month since the portable went on sale in Japan in December 2004.
Acording to Famitsu publisher, Enterbrain, the slimmer DS Lite model constitutes for 13.6 million of the 20 million units sold, the remaining 6.4 million being DS Fats.
Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl (5,337,424) is the top selling software for the console, while New Super Mario Bros. (4,894,287) and the mainstream-aimed Brain Age 2 (4,731,990) follows behind, and Animal Crossing: Wild World (4,443,340) and Brain Age (3,571,030) completing the top five. Notice, they're all first-party titles.
