It’s a big sales year at Nintendo. In addition to Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Pikmin 4 and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingom were also released this year. In financial reports, the Japanese games manufacturer now talks about the specific sales figures
As the financial reports published in the last few days show, Nintendo should be very satisfied with this year’s releases of its own IPs. As the first (financial document shows), for example The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom sold a whopping 19.5 million copies between its release in May and September. The new edition of Pikmin 4 was also able to shine. Between July and September,2.6 million units were sold.
However, Super Mario Bros. Wonder set a new sales record. In the two weeks since its release, Nintendo has sold an impressive 4.3 million copies. Since the Wii and Nintendo DS have been around, no other Super Mario game has sold so many copies, a truly brilliant achievement. And let’s not forget the animated film about the plumber brothers that was released in spring. According to estimates from Universal Studios, the film grossed over 1.3 billion US dollars and was seen by more than 169 million people, according to Nintendo.
